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.


Wine

Gaspacho

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

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

I skipped dessert and only had a few bites of the cake the owner brought over for Marc.
Sparkly black forrest cake



Dinner for 2 (invited Marc, he was de birthday boy!) at Lélé da Cuca was $62

I thought I had forgotten my camera at work so I didn't take a picture of dinner. It was the same thing as yesterday anyway. Then I found my camera under a book. Heh. So you get a picture of the chicken thighs I just roasted with lemon, garlic, rosemary and red onions for tomorrow's dinner.
