For dinner, I joined my friends Marc and Roxanne to celebrate Marc's b-day. We went to Lélé da Cuca, a Brasilian-Mexican hole-in-the-wall restaurant. It was empty, so we got great service. The food was ok, but nothing to write home about.

Acarajé
This is a fried dough stufed with a peanut and almond paste, then shrimp. It was a bit too cake-like for my taste.
Mole chicken, rice, salad (did not eat it), black beans
Mole chicken
Did not taste like much, but the chicken was tender and juicy. The bean were the highlight of that plate. The salad was just a sad affair. Then the owner brought us free pineapple and orange drinks. Delicious, but kind of random during dinner.
Fruity drink
free pineapple and orange juice
I skipped dessert and only had a few bites of the cake the owner brought over for Marc.
