Remember the picture of me at the airport?….. Apparently this is what makes Dwight smile like that.
We had been told about Johnny’s, a burger place here in Shell. They also have these ‘tablitas,’ which are loaded with fries and meat- 2 of Dwight’s favorite things. This is the first time since we’ve been here that he’s had this much meat at once…and he was obviously VERY pleased. I said, “Oh, I want to take a picture.” He said, “Here, I’ll hold it.” Then he proceeded to make that face….which was truly just to mock my picture from the airport.
Johnny is awesome! He knows quite a bit of English, and it’s fun to converse with him. I’ll have to take a picture of his shop, because if I call it a restaurant it paints the wrong picture. It’s just an open-front room really, and his grill is right at the front. He just stands there and cooks orders all night. I haven’t had a hamburger yet, but I hear they’re fabulous.
I feel like I painted a bad picture of what our food experience has been like thus far with my market posting. We’ve actually had Chinese food, Pizza, Johnny’s, and a really nice steak restaurant. And they’re all REALLY good! We are not deprived in the least. The best part is how cheap it all is. :-) That tablita you saw is about $3.50. That’s also why Dwight is smiling like that.
Oh goodness, you think one of those would hold if you mailed it too me. that looks goo-ood.
