3 Course Lunch!

As I mentioned earlier this week, I have a new job at a tapas restaurant downtown. (Check out their website here). My roommate has worked there for a while, and I have eaten there plenty of times. The food is awesome, and I am so excited to use my employee discount

I’m worked lunch this morning, and I am going in again later to work dinner. I’m in between shifts right now, and I just ate an incredible lunch! They have a great lunch deal where you can get a 3 course lunch for $7.95, and since I get 50% off lunch, I got a 3 course lunch to-go for less the $5!! Heck yes!

First Course: Tomato Salad

Tomatoes broiled with parmesan and parsley over baby spinach :) :)

Second Course: Fish Tacos

Corn tortillas (so much more flavorful than flour tortillas!) stuffed with tilapia sauteed with spices and tomatoes. These were amazing…I love fish tacos!

Third Course: Chocolate Raspberry Cake

Pure bliss.

For some reason, I got a strange craving to put avocado on my cake….so I did :)

 

yes, i really did!

yes, i really did!

 

I liked it!! The cake was pretty sweet so the avocado kinda toned down the sweetness and added the buttery creamy wonderfulness of avocados. Warning: This combo is probably only for hard-core avocado lovers… Try at your own risk ;)

Randomness: This has nothing to do with the rest of my post, but I’m going to leave you with a running quote I just found that I really like:

“The way I see it, you have to view running time not as extra or wasted time, but as important, productive contemplation time.” Fred Lebow

Hope you all are having a good weekend!
