Fine Dining by Trike

Tonight's Trail to and From our Cantina

Jacque wasn't in the mood for a Tandem Ride this evening until I suggested stopping at our newly favorite Mexican Restaurant here in Mountain Grove, a short distance for a nice evening ride.
This is one of the rare Mexican kitchens where there are Hispanic-looking personnel waiting tables and cooking in the back, the food is as close to actual Mexican food as you can find east of the Oklahoma border, AND they speak Spanish to each other.  Very Nice, !Que Bueno!
Of course we have to dig deep into the menu to find something with some actual chili-heat flavor.  I spotted the Nachos Locos claiming to have Jalapenos in it, and enjoyed it immensely even though the jalapenos were the pickled variety from a can.  That's about as close to hot chili that we've been able to find.
On the way home  I was fresh out of folding money so we detoured over to the nearest ATM to use their tricycle-friendly ATM pedestal.  Normally in this small town there is no one behind us to shoo us on our way, but tonight a friendly fellow patiently awaited his turn.  After this we were feeling so spunky we rode the extra 1/8 mile around the adjacent town square before getting back across the tracks toward home.
We got back en casa  about a half hour before sundown so we didn't have to run any lights except the blinky red tail light.
