molotoff ... a merengue dessert with a nice cream sauce.
Well tonight i had dinner in Inman Square in Cambridge, at a lovely Portuguese restaurant called Casa Portugal with my friends Paul and Yari. This was an unexpected choice and quite a refreshing surprise. i had never had Portuguese cuisine before. This is a quaint restaurant with great atmosphere, i was not quite sure what to expect but had an absolutely delicious meal. The shrimps were cooked perfectly and the sauce was rich and flavorful. The rice was cooked with a lot of garlic (which to me is a good thing) and the homemade chips were quite nice, Paul ordered a great Portuguese white wine and then he and i each got a dessert, i got something called a Molotoff which is like a merengue pudding with a cream sauce. I would highly recommend Casa Portugal to anyone, food and atmosphere are really quite worth the trip.
Afterwards we went for a quick walk to Central Square to Craigies on Main st. for after dinner cocktails. Yari had a beer, Paul had a French 75 (gin, champagne, lemon juice and syrup) and i had the above pictured drink. It was quite delicious i must say, i ordered it based on its description and thankfully it worked out...whew !
I look forward to going back and trying the food as it seemed like a pretty cool place, of course i was with some cool folks so that helped. : -)
thats all for tonight.
have a good night and a good meal
Kevin
