This weekend seemed to be particularly fiesta themed. After learning on Friday the history behind James Taylor's song, "Mexico," we still found ourselves oddly drawn to a variety of Mexican-themed fare. Friday night we spent the evening at one of Suzy's family's favorite NYC hangouts--the Willy Wall, an undiscovered gem out in the middle of the Hudson River. Our picnic in hand included Mango-Avocado Salsa and a number of other great snacks. We were one-upped by our Willy Wall neighbors who had the ingenuity to bring pizza out to the booze barge (we finished up the night with a slice ourselves...that mozzarella smell is really intoxicating, and will undoubtedly be a temptation for the vegan month of June).
Saturday continued the Mexican-themed festivities with outdoor brunch at Dos Caminos in Meatpacking. As we ate our meals and sipped our complimentary cocktails with our friends, Julie and Basil, the 4 of us planned dinner for the evening, which ended up consisting of shrimp tacos, micheladas, and fat witch brownies--Brandt's favorite is Caramel. All in all, a nice little Saturday (insert witty Spanish phrase here, because I don't know any).
