CHILAQUILES


*The "J" is obviously backwards*
Today we ate at Mijita Cocina Mexicana at the Ferry Buiding for BREAKFAST.
We always order the CHILAQUILES (no eggs, sour cream or cheese ), pinto beans, and a side of guacamole.
This is the only place I've ever seen that adds roasted poblano chili strips to the chilaquiles.
This is what makes them special.
They then smother the tortilla chips and poblanoes with a tangy chili salsa.
I dream of these chilaquiles.
They make them better than my mom.
She hates it when I tell her that.
But it's true. 
Mijita's chilaquiles are the BEST I've ever eaten.

So we're home now.
But before we got home, we had to stop somewhere for dinner.
So since today is Sunday, and Sunday is VeggieGrill day, we made the drive to El Segundo.
Posted about this place here.
Unfortunately, our Chill Out Wings were very disappointing.
They were mushy.
They're usually super crispy.
We actually took them back and asked for a replacement.
But it was of no use.
Still mushy.
So we decided not to order them again.

I just have to say that this weekend was magical.
My husband went out of his way to drive 6 hours to San Francisco ( for the weekend ), just so I could spend my birthday and anniversary in the place that makes me the happiest.
He is so special to me.
We've been together for almost 19 years.
Been married 10 years.
But it feels like we just met and fell in love.
Can't wait to see what the next 10 years will bring.
