lunch with the hens . . .

we went back to chucherias hondurenas down in daytona today.  we got no further than the special of the day; salmon in a coconut curry and garlic sauce with fried plantains and a rice tower and didn't even look at the menu.

o.m.g.  so good.  joanie's rice tower fell over immediately.  mine tumbled shortly thereafter.  lee was crowing that hers was still standing.  so i did what any red blooded foodie would do.  i grabbed my fork out of my mouth and tipped hers over in one fell swoop.  and when it retained its tower shape, i took that same fork and smashed it to pieces.  i'm a good friend like that.

want some ambiance on a drop dead gorgeous day??

this was when we first got there.  by 12:30 it was packed.

nice roof, eh?

sweet outside too.

and a little fun????

but as we were sitting there fully sated, i decided by the amount of salmon that this was no $8.95 special of the day so we decided to play the price is right.  the person with the highest guess without going over wins.  i bet $22.  joanie bet $29.  lee was in the high teens.  joanie won!  it was so worth it.  every once in a while, you have to splurge and that twern't no line chef in the kitchen.  slurp.
