\"Untitled\"\/<\/a><\/p>\n

After a late night of playing and watching friends play, there were very few restaurants still open. We found ourselves at Mocajetes. <\/p>\n

This place was so authentic they didn’t even serve queso. Apparently queso is an American invention and it’s not even a true Mexican food thing.<\/p>\n

They served chips and pico de gallo instead of salsa. First bowl of pico on the house but then you were on your own. Since we couldn’t get queso, I ordered guacamole instead. It was really good!<\/p>\n

The pico looked super fresh. As did the guacamole. But I really wanted some queso, though. You can’t go to a Mexican restaurant and not have queso, even if it’s not really a Mexican thing.<\/p>\n

Anyway, the service was slow but the food was excellent. I really liked my Mexican-style pork chops. Although, everyone was making fun of me because I told them to leave pretty much everything off that made it even remotely Mexican. The pork chops had really good flavor, though.<\/p>\n

Regarding the service, Brian concluded that the service was slow for us because we were a bunch of gringos. All the other tables around us seemed to have great service but they were also all Hispanic. I don’t know. Could be a coincidence. I still really liked the place, though, and would probably eat there again next year.<\/p>\n

Until next time, GNG.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
