Happy Cinco de Mayo!

Celebrate with tacos and margaritas!

Here's a round up of my fave taco places:

5 Napkin Burger (Miami), who knew a burger place could do fish tacos so well?

Linden Square's The Cottage in Wellesley, MA does a mean mahi taco

Border Cafe in Harvard Square, Boston

Dos Cominos in NYC

Atwoods Tavern, Boston, does a good fish taco!

And if you, like me, enjoy taco night at home, try this tilapia recipe for creating delish fish tacos!!

April: Art To Inspiration

This month's Art to Inspiration comes from an artist named Pakayla Rae Biehn whose work is entitled:

2 Year, 264 Days and This Morning.

Is it bad to have immediately thought of food when I saw this image? Perhaps I was hungry or perhaps it's because I ate too much Mexican food in San Diego where I just returned from, for this is what it brought to mind.  In texture, in colour and with the use of negative and positive space.

New York City: Dos Caminos

Location:

825 3rd Avenue

New York, NY 10022

Came highly recommended. Didn't know it was a chain. And for someone who spent more than 8 hours at the Met without eating anything, I was, to say the least, starving. The service was top knotch, and because we said we were incredibly hungry they brought out everything in literally 10 minutes. 

The rice and beans were unlimited, and we (mostly me) had about 5-6 refills. 

The fish dish was spicy just as I ordered, just wonderful. Ah, to have it once more. 

Boston: Border Cafe

Location:

32 Church St., Cambridge, MA

Appearing as though it's the red light district of Harvard Square, this Border Cafe in Cambridge is loud, crowded and welcoming.  

The margaritas were STRONG, the nachos crispy and the Cajun/Mexican mains absolutely delicious.  Each of us in our party of five enjoyed our round-table meal.

I even spilled a drink on my brother in law.

If you can't have a good time here, there is no hope for thou.
