Dinner with the Family


Pato and Marcela took us to 'Ky,' a nice Thai restaurant last night. From the outside, you would never know this place was a restaurant. It's a residence converted into a restaurant - inside it's very beautifully decorated. You're totally surprised when you go in because the restaurant is in a pretty scary neighborhood - there's graffiti everywhere, it's dark and you definitely should not be out walking in the area at night. Tia Veronica, Paulina, Uri and Ravit also came along and made it a great evening.

The food was wonderful, I had Osso bucco with Israeli couscous and Rod had the Shrimp Risotto. We also ordered a refreshing salad with octopus and mango with a light orange citrus dressing. For dessert, we ordered a sampler of cute little mini desserts - creme brulee, fresh berries, manjar topped with meringue browned in the broiler, and two other desserts made with ice cream.

We cracked up because one of the desserts is called, "Maiquel Yacson." It's made with a scoop of a vanilla ice cream with hot chocolate sauce and caramel (just a little bit racist, don't you think?)

What a memorable evening, such a great night of good food and drinks and wonderful company! Gracias a todos!
