Gracias To You

A little over a year ago before the blog Les and I both read a very good review of a little restaurant just down the road from RC Bandit and Scrapbook Studio and so we went there.

Yesterday we repeated the experience! Yay!

It's on Celtic Cres just off Marua Rd in Mt Wellington....

It's called....


The Decor is down to earth...


As is the serve ware...

Chicken Tostada
(Too good to wait for a photo)

But the food is YUMMY!!! Authentic Mexican.

And there's lots of cool stuff to look at...




And buy...

This is for Saskia and the gum was for me... do you remember getting stuff like that when you were little?

The people are super lovely and will recommend something for you. They also sell Mexican food for you to take home and cook. As well as all sorts of groovy bits and pieces- you should see the cool Day-of-the-Dead stuff!

They aren't open all that much... but it's worth making the effort to go- when they are.

While we were out Will also had his first visit to a model shop- he was well impressed by RC Bandit! And really enjoyed playing on the flight sim at Airsail. (Crashing is funny!)

Along the way we saw some interesting stuff and picked up a few good bargains....
Office Max 30m gold and silver wrapping paper 1 for $20 or 2 for $30 this'll do for birthdays as well as Christmas and will last for yonks!
Stationery World- Metallic pink, orange, blue and green book rings in a mixed bag of ten for $5.95 (good for mini albums)

And the interesting stuff...

Something being filmed in downtown Auckland City...

Lots of interesting people with stories to tell I'm sure and a couple of shops I'm going back to when I finally get the big lotto cheque!

And we finished the afternoon with what else but...
Starbucks!
