TACOS 🌮
We started our wander back to our hood in Condesa as we had seen many delicious look places there to eat. Unfortunately we hadn't been careful to hydrate so by the time we sat down at we were desperate for a drink.
The wait staff (who had no one else in the restaurant as it was 4pm) were so attentively trying to translate the menu into English for us that it was overwhelming. We had to ask more than once for just a drink and some guacamole and 10 minutes after which we would be able to think about food.
As the only person with a SIM card and maps, my battery had been zapped so I asked our waiter if he could charge my phone. He next level it my bringing my a battery pack to the table. Now that is service.
After a Corona we could then think about eating, and our wait staff were on hand to take our orders. Sashimi tuna was his recommendation, and that is one of my favourite things. Fortunately a few others in the group were keen on that. It was heaven.
It was a novice mistake putting Mandy at the end of the table closest to the street as she was not prepared for the street sellers and almost too easier had her arm twisted into buying a small sheep.
This place is were we started our 'guacamole order to gauge serving size'. This simply means, you order guacamole first off the bat, and then from the guacamole portion you gauge what you get for X amount of pesos. It thus far seems to be an accurate system.
The guacamole portion here was moderately sized but well priced. Over all our meal was cheap and serviced with a smile. So not a bad first taco experience for the newbies.
Also our waiter introduced me to "Clamato" which is how Mexicans drink their corona. It's kinda like a Mexican Bloody Mary. Where you get a half cup of this refreshing 'tomato and clam' concoction and then top it up with your corona. I was the only one game enough to order. I must say I quite enjoyed it.
The only reason I didn't quite finish the drink was due to the shear mass of liquid required to be consumed. I 100% will order again.
