Mexicanos, ¡Viva México!
Last night we went out to a sushi restaurant thinking a change from red meat would do us the power of good. The place we chose however specialised in some kind of deep fried battered sushi / tempura affair which was pretty heavy on the stomach, still we walked home from there and watched a few episodes of the American Office and today´s been quiet so far. Today I´ve been rebuilding my lightbox and retaking the photos since they changed the labels on the tequila bottles and need new pix. Which is pretty therapeutic work to be honest. Later I´m off doing Amour Fou´s tech support and then we´ll have a meal and head of to Chapalita where there´s some kind of mini celebration of the Grito. Last year´s was fairly hectic in the centre so we´re toning it down a tad.
Qwin–Have you found a place with good sushi in Guadalajara? Everything I’ve tasted here is too sour. Mexican peoples’ tastes run to heavy on the vinegar.
We´ve been to a couple of decent places, one´s on Lopez Cotilla just before El Centro Magno and the other´s off of Lopez Mateos in ladron de guevara. But I´ll have to research the names a bit.
The strangest thing for me is that you have to specifically request wasabe and ginger, and also the surprisingly tasty fusion of chiles with soy sauce, ie the little bowl of soy sauce with chopped up chiles in it. Let us know if you need a recommendation and thanks for commenting, John.
