Unlike Jenny who ruined Saori's free pass, Aya and I were able to enjoy a free pass over the weekend when my dad watched JT for the night. Aya and I tried a new Asian fusion place called Mako. Everything was pretty much tapa's. The portions were a little big for tapa's...so it was good and bad. Good because you could get full. Bad because you get full quick and you can't order as many items. It was interesting. I don't know if I would go back.
In fact, a few weeks ago I had lunch/dinner at a place across the street, Frida's. They make good margaritas and have EXCELLENT rib eye taco's. I have to warn you, this is going to be one of the most expensive mexican restaurants you will ever eat at....but it was good. I love mexican food, but I do feel funny about paying that much for mexican food. For example, the rib eye taco's are 18 bucks for 3 tacos. Yup, 18 bucks! When you eat the tacos you kind of wonder if you would be better off just eating the rib instead of it being cut up into taco meat...but it is hard to argue when it taste's so good.
I know, you guys are still stuck on 18 bucks for 3 tacos. The first time I went, I didn't go with Aya and when I explained 18 dollar taco's Aya just rolled her eyes. I decided to take Aya there for lunch and she got the rib eye taco's and 18 bucks was no longer the issue!
Overall it was a good long 3 weekend. For some reason being off over xmas and new years was not relaxing for me. The time off was good, but it felt like I always had things to do and just could not rest. This weekend Aya and I were able to rest and recharge our batteries!

GAAA. thanks for further trying to throw me under the bus that's already parked on top of me.
$18 bucks?? that's $6 for a TACO. was it BIG? I hope for that much it was HUUUUUGE. I appreciate the fact that you know your audience well enough to know that we'd still be stuck on the $6 taco.
Jen-
Oh, is that you under the bus? =)
Heck, know my audience, I am my audience! I don't even like paying $6 bucks for a taco. it is like a regular size taco. the shell is no bigger than what we got from the taco truck.
They do pack a lot of meat in it...and instead of mystery meat it is rib eye. I suppose that is where the cost comes in.
We will go there one day. You can substitute the two beers for two margarita's!
