Beach Bums Who Love Mexican Food!

Looking ahead to another great day at beautiful Clearwater Beach later this week!
And the best part - we are going to be met by our nephew Josh Daniel and his little wife, Naomy, our niece Jewel, our niece Jackie, her husband Brian, and their two princesses there! Yes, Jackie and her crew are here all the way from Paraguay for a two week visit before heading north.
(I tried to upload photos of them to put here but Blogger wasn't cooperating.)


After the beach, we plan on stopping by one of our favorite "hole in the wall" authentic Mexican restaurants. Hubby thinks it tastes just like his mom's home cooking. We all love the food here at El Chicanito's! We really want to introduce my nieces and nephew to this great place in Clearwater!


This little guy greets you at the front door. Isn't he a hoot?

The last time we went to the beach, we had our nephew David with us. This is the "platillo" he ordered. Pollo en mole verde.


Here are my steak tacos topped with onions and cilantro, great beans and rice! The tortillas were hot off the press too. Muy "delicioso"!


Agustin ordered pollo ranchero. He was quite pleased with the red salsa.

There were two of these intricately hand carved wooden Aztec calendars on display. Each piece was placed in like a puzzle. Amazing!

This little guy sat on the windowsill by our table. I just had to get a shot of him mooning us.

Here's his best side!

How exciting you are getting to have the far away family join you. If we ever get to that area you'll have to take us to that restaurant!!! Being raised in N.M. I grew up on and love authentic Mexican food.

I'll take what you had. It looks good to me.
Have some fun family time.
I'm headed to FL this weekend for a quick stopover before Jamaica.

Mmm. The 'hole in the wall' eateries are the best! There's a place we go up here that serves the best chicken tacos...so big you need order only one. Mmm.
