Friday, March 11
For Breakfast, I had the three Empanadas that I had bought the day before -- when I picked up the Delicious Chocolate Things.
Later, while I went foraging through the city, I ought a Marciano (Ice Pop to you and me). This one was Strawberry.
I was hungry, so I stopped at a random restaurant on the street. It had a bunch of customers, so I assumed it was good.
When the guy saw that I was alone, he told me to sit a table that was already being used by one woman, Sonya. I checked with her, and she was happy to let me join her. She didn't know that she was going to in the blog, but she was happy to let me take a picture.
She was eating Pollo con Mani. That's Chicken with Peanuts. Maybe it was in the Sauce.
I had a Cebiche, and then a Jalea.
The Jalea was mixed, Fried Seafood. It was very good, especially for a hole-in-the-wall joint. And especially for $7.
Sonia and I chatted for a while, and I finally went on my way.
My next stop was to meet Bertha later that afternoon. We went to a Sandwich Shop near her house, and I had a Asado Sandwich (Beef), and we both had a Cremolada.
Sandra met Ed & I for dinner when she got off of work. We went to Amoramar in Barranco. We've been there before, and it's great. But this time -- much to Sandra's concern -- there were no flowers on our table. Other tables had them, but not us. It was touch and go for a moment, but we muddled through.
They started us off with Mini-Causas and Bread.
Then something happened. We were looking at the Drink menu, and I noticed that they had Tapas on the list. Since I am always concerned that I won't get enough Food, I ordered some Tapas before the Appetizers.
From the top, there was Grilled Calamar on Chips, Grilled Octopus on Toast, and Pork Sandwiches. They decided that we needed six of them -- not sure why, maybe because they are expensive -- but they were excellent.
For our Appetizer, Ed watched Sandra and I share a Cebiche made with Mixed Seafood and Tuna.
By 'share,' I mean that she took some and I didn't pierce her hand with my fork.
For our Main Courses, I had Rice with Duck, Sandra had the Cabrito de Leche (Goat), and Ed had a Tuna Stir-Fry.
We passed on Dessert, but they brought us some mini-Brownies with the check.
That was it for the day. Good food, and I made a new friend.
