Oxtail and Mojitos

Date night! The hubby and I chose a local Cuban spot, Havana South, that has amazing dishes. Everything I have had there has been great; Cuban sandwiches, Paella, crab-stuffed fish, and marinated pork chops. I have been eyeing the oxtail the last couple of times, and tonight I decided to go for it! 002

This dish did not disappoint! Fall off the bone, melty, rich meat; Perfection! It came with 3 oxtails, pretty tasty black beans, and probably one of the best restaurant rice out there. I hardly ever eat the side dish rice. 003

The hubby got the garlic chicken, and it was delicious as well. I saw a sign for mojitos when we first walked in, and each table we passed all had at least one. Of course, I had to get one! Great dinner out! Lots of food for your money; Leftovers for the weekend! Cheers to the freakin’ weekend!

No dishes to do!

I love cooking brunch, but also love going out to eat. I can discover new things to make, and there are no dishes to do. This morning we decided to go to J. Christopher’s. Everything there is very yummy. This morning, they had a special that I knew I had to get. Eggs benedict with pimento cheese and fried green tomatoes. Yes, it was good. I definitely have to recreate this one!
