French Fry Fairy

I don’t particularly like watching football. I always wanted to be that cool girl who has a genuine interest in sports. Unfortunately, God did no bless me with the sport gene or any cool gene in general. However, I do like sports bars, boys and beer so I can handle watching a football game now and again.

I drove to Doral again to have lunch with my friend Josh and we went to a little place called Latin American Grill. Of course I devoured my entire plate of beans and rice and plantain chips with mojo sauce because those are two of my favorite things in the entire world. I also love yucca fries, so we ordered those too. This little place is inexpensive so we loaded up on calories for the long winter ahead.

So once upon a time I went to Latin Café 2000 with my dear friend, Al. I didn’t rate the French fries because I was so in love with the mojo sauce with plantains that I forgot to leave room for the fried tubers. As luck would have it, my friend Carlos asked me to go to Latin Café 2000 again, so I had another opportunity to try the French fries.

Just to make this clear, I also ordered the plantains with mojo sauce and beans and rice. I really love Cuban food, which is not readily available in the Midwest so thank goodness Miami was able to introduce me to something I enjoy almost as much as French fries. My good friend even writes a blog about where to find the best Cuban food in Miami. Read the rest of this entry »
