Mucho Good Mexican Food

Poor grammar I know but boy was the food excellent! We went to this restaurant the night before keepers testified against their former therapist, in our state capital. The food there was so good and so inexpensive, what a welcome thing that was! When we left they said they had another restaurant near St Louis but we did not know where. Well on one drive back from meeting with Pastor Brown we saw a billboard for their new location, it is about 50 miles from our house.

Today we took a drive out there, around 5 this afternoon, it was my way of telling Keepers happy Mother' Day, just a day early. They had mentioned going there a couple of times since we had seen the billboard but I don't think they ever expected us to go there. We got there before the supper rush so there was no waiting to be seated. We ordered 2 number one combinations and an order of beef nachos to share and 2 Pepsis. They bring the usual salsa and chips for an appetizer and the salsa is okay but on the table they have habanero sauce, both red and green, so we added some green to the salsa, that perked things up real quick!

The nachos are simply chips on a platter, covered with seasoned ground beef and that is covered by melted cheese and I do mean covered! With a lot of both. The combo plates we chose had 2 beef and cheese enchiladas, a beef taco with cheese and lettuce and spanish rice. We add salsa to the taco and to the rice and I spread it on my enchiladas also. At one point keepers ran out of soda, had a few bite with the green habanero sauce and it burnedddddddddddd. Just about then our waiter came by picked up their empty glass and put his hand on their shoulder, "Are you okay?" he asked

They nodded "yes"

He looked her empty glass, her face, then the habanero bottle, "Did you put the green sauce on your enchilada?" he asked

They smiled and said "Yes"

He shook his head as if to say "crazy gringo lady" and went to refill her soda. He was funny.

So we left there with three to go boxes, they had one and a half enchiladas left and some rice, I had two enchiladas and a little rice and about 1/3 of the nachos and it cost us a whopping total of $22.62 tax included. And we will get a late evening snack out of it or lunch tomorrow, either way it will be delicious.

So there you have it, our night out...oh yeah, I forgot we went to Wally world after that a we got them a small Mothers Day cake. Terrence got into that as soon as we got home!!! That's okay, that is what it is for, to each of them I say Happy Mother's Day, I know how much you love your children, I know how you did the absolute best that was possible, I know you will always love them no matter what. You were and are a wonderful Mom.

Love
