Dining in Colors

The last three nights I have been dining in colors.  With my colleagues, I have been to the Red Onion Cafe.  With my daughter, I visited Blu. Both of those restaurants had tasty food.  Last night, I tried  the Roasted Poblano Soup at the Red Onion Cafe.  It was creamy and spicy.  I may have to find a recipe and try it at home this fall.

What is it about traveling that makes you think of food?  When is lunch?  Where are we going for dinner?  When I am on my regular schedule, I don't think about dinner until I get home.

Speaking of home, I may possibly get home in time for dinner.  Tonight's menu at home features Green Chili Cheeseburgers!

Away from Home

So today, I am away from home.  When I am out, I enjoy thinking about what to eat.  Tonight it was Carne Guisada.  Here's my little thought about this dinner.

Carne Guisada
Slow simmered beef, rich gravy
Good food with good friends!

We ate at the Red Onion Cafe in Houston.  I think I will still be full at breakfast.  I do have to mention that someone at our table ordered the Chocolate EmpaƱada.  It was a toothsome mouthful. Honestly, one was all I ate!  Fried pie crust filled with chocolate and pecans.  Served with ice cream. That one bite was heavenly!
