Riverside Park and Tacos

Underdog anyone? We arrived at the 3 Fires PowWow a little too early to see any of the dancing, so headed for the playground. The three Michigan tribes are in town until 4pm today. We did catch some dancing and singing yesterday as well. Marcos was really disappointed not to see them today tho. Off to the new tienda/restaurante of old friends, Don Angel, Senora Theresa, Enoch and family. Their menu is mostly tacos- a dozen different types. Enoch says menudo is picking up too.

Cousins on a taqueria banquette. Sounds

like a good name for a song.

Chicharrone and tamale. Jill had been craving Sra. Theresa's tamales and they did not disappoint! Very good food.

Above, Gregg, Louis, Enoch, Checo and Don Angel. The kitchen is off to the side of a small grocery area. Seating for 16 only. Not pictured are Enoch's two girls, Julia and Rosaria, who are servers. It was nice visiting with everybody (we haven't seen this family really for almost three years). The girls said that the first week of working at the restaurant, they didn't mind tacos every day, but it got old. Enoch ordered pizza to break up the monotony and according to Julie, the pizza delivery guy asked why they needed pizza, "this is a restaurant, right?" Try eating tacos every day!

After lunch, Linnea napped and Gregg started a wonderful chicken curry dish. Jill and I went to the Fulton St. Artisan Market for the first time. It was very busy and the booths were almost full. A very nice Sunday afternoon activity. As Jill said, we have not had too many "stay-in-the-house" weekends, so I'm heading out to do a little more gardening before church tonight. I helped a neighbor move a bed of hostas this week. We shared some with our other neighbor and also planted quite a few here this weekend. I predict next Saturday to be about peak for the summer flower garden, so hope to have more photos then.
