It was an all out relapse. All that avocado-lime-arugula-rabbit food bullshit — it was for nothing — my progress obliterated by a spicy cubano from Joe’s Burger followed by a late night Santa Fe gut bomb a la El Tamerindo. The burger was topped pretty creatively, though overcooked and a little dry, but the burrito was a shit show. Filled with a forearms worth of super salty beef the tortilla was so flaccid it wasn’t discernible from the cheese adhered to its surface. It’s past noon the following day, and that thing is still kicking my ass. It’s time I start cooking for myself a little more.
To that end I hit up Penzey’s in Falls church to freshen up my spice pantry and also bought some staples from an ethnic grocery. The plate pictured above should give you an idea where I’m going. Instead of rabbit food this summer I’m fighting fire with fire Who’s ready for some spicy Goan Shrimp curry ?
