Shrimp al Mojo de Ajo and Fish Fillet Empanizada
At Restaurant Anamar in Primo Tapia.
To start, a bowl of our favorite crema de almeja along with a frequently refilled basket of tortillas chips with two salsas (one fierce, one a mild
pico de gallo) and bowls of rice and beans served family style. Delicious and so satisfying.
Accompanied by Cervesa Bohemia poured in a proper heavy glass.
Also, we had a lovely view of the spectacular sunset over the ocean.
Hello, Nuevo Ano 2013, the dogs are sleeping by the fireplace and all is calm - we and our woofs wish you all the best in the coming year.

Camarone served with basic c-cktail sauce(kethcup w/horseradish mixed in) on the side. Tequila shooters and New Years Day football. Ummmm, the
"Breakfast of New Years Day Champions". 
Why do Liberals insist and demand that achievers pay the way for nonachievers who are to lazy to succeed, or are just failures by their own choice?
Criminals prefer unarmed victims, dictators prefer unarmed subjects.
Why do ignorant people continue their blabbering when it only proves to others how stupid they are.
