Jersey City Taqueria

A huge portion guacamole, we were able to have it with two more meals after this
Green enchiladas
Salt cured flank steak. I have to find a recipe for this at home.
Irene went to Jersey City Medical Center this afternoon, we hope she'll be alright.

We like this place and I've always done take out so we thought we would try eating in. It turns out it's warm enough that their backyard is open and we were able to eat outside. The lively place with music and lights. And the warm November weather really was lucky.

A stop while shopping : On The Border

Chips and a Bloody Maria
A quick stop while shopping.

Grilled shrimp bowl
The Baja Combo: chicken enchalata and a fried chicken and cheese stuffed avocado
The shrimp was done perfectly. The bowl was a de constructed taco,  so we wanted tortillas. The fried avocado was interesting.

Pizza for the Mets Game. Ledo Pizza

Fettuccine Bolognese with Goat Cheese
This regional pizza chain was a great find on Chincoteague Island, VA.  We had the 14" HOTLANTA BBQ : Their signature square crust drizzled with Urban Bar-B-Que® Yella sauce, sliced chicken, regular bacon, and jalapeƱos topped with Provolone cheese.  It was amazing.  We also ordered a second pizza and the Fettuccini Bolognese  with goat cheese topping.  All were perfect.  I do not know if they deliver, but if we had ordered over the phone, we might not have made the perfect meal choice.
