slumdog Posted September 25, 2010 Report Share Posted September 25, 2010 Jeanette How many of the dishes in your photos contained Oscar Mayer salami? Now please be honest as it was hard to tell by the beautiful photos you took. Ha ha ha ha ha.... ! Very good. But seriously, folks, I think it's great that Jeanette showed us these photos. I've been reading for some time about this restaurant, but it's the photos that convinced me to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkgourmet Posted September 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2010 Which restaurant? Hole in one or viva Mexico? BOTH I hope! Incidentally, as a notorious food snob, I only eat authentic made in Italy salami - (that's a joke, folks. But I do strongly prefer Hebrew National hot dogs.) Now I'm off to eat my processed food and sugar filled Fruit Loops for breakfast. Photo's at eleven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RVGRINGO Posted September 25, 2010 Report Share Posted September 25, 2010 I've really enjoyed Jeanette's reviews and, now, her photos of food sampled in her travels. I look forward to more such postings as I sit here paying the price for eating too well. I do like fruits and vegetables, but not to excess, so I relish photos of meat dishes, rich sauces accompanied by a glass or two of red wine. Unfortunately, I have to restrict myself to the photos ..........Gout hurts a LOT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slumdog Posted September 25, 2010 Report Share Posted September 25, 2010 Which restaurant? Hole in one or viva Mexico? BOTH I hope! The Viva photos. I've eaten at HoleInOne several times, but never been to Viva. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkgourmet Posted September 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2010 A suggestion, if you don't mind? Go to Viva Mexico after 4pm on a sat or Sunday. Ask Augustine (the owner) about the specials and for his suggestions. This is the only restaurant that I know of that serves chile en nogada year round. Great place to bring guests, as well. Let us know what you think - I hope you share my enthusiasm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slumdog Posted September 25, 2010 Report Share Posted September 25, 2010 Let us know what you think - I hope you share my enthusiasm. Thanks for the suggestions: I will. Was the fish in banana leaf actually on the menu, or a special? And gads, I love pipian. I've made it at home, from a variety of jarred sauces available at local grocery stores; unfortunately, they are almost all too picoso for most people.

jkgourmet Posted September 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2010 He has recently changed and expanded his menu, so I don't know if it's a regular or a special. But he also sometimes can make things on request, so you might ask about it when you go. The chicken pepian was not spicy hot, though again, might be available that way on request. It was delicious and very unique, made with a peanut based sauce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lakesidechaps Posted September 26, 2010 Report Share Posted September 26, 2010 What is the connection? The subject line if this posting was food photo's and to answer your question as simple as possible; never judge a book by its cover. However, if you do not care about the content (being a book or the food on your plate) and just go for the looks (or taste), than indeed such a remark would not be appropriate. Nevertheless I would advise you to look a little bit 'deeper' into the 'food-picture' and the included link was just an example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slainte39 Posted September 26, 2010 Report Share Posted September 26, 2010 Famous quote by Otto von Bismarck-- "If you like sausage then you don't want to watch it being made" I like sausage and I don't want to watch it being made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thevalerieleigh Posted September 26, 2010 Report Share Posted September 26, 2010 Those all looked really tasty to me! I really liked the way the desserts looked. I think I just put on a kilo. by watching it, LOL! I think I'll have to go try some soon. I love Viva Mexico and think they have great food, fair prices and excellent service. It's always a treat when we go. Enjoy! Valerie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
