Mexican food

Post by mel hubbard »

Back in Nov 97 while on the Manx club Baja run, my nephew Brett and myself borrowed a buggy and took the short drive from Petes camp into San Filipe to get a meal and take a look around the small town. As we walked around the town i noticed a nice little Mexican restaurant,, i said to Brett "shall we eat in there" Brett replied " You go in for a beer and i will meet up with you later,,, as i need to do some shopping first". As i sat down all alone i noticed paper plates all over the restaurant walls with special meals of the day,,,, a kind of wall menu,,,,, one plate caught my eye,,,, it said meat balls,, our speciality,,,, feeling too hungry to wait and dine with Brett i called the waiter over and ordered the meat balls and a cold beer,,,,, 10 minutes later the meal was served,,,, wow,,, the meat balls tasted great. When i had finnished my meal i called the waiter over to compliment him,,,, '' that was a very fine meal,,,, what kind of meat is that?'' i asked,,,,,, the waiter replied '' Sinor,, in Mexico they have bull fighting,, and when the bull loses the fight they cut its testicles off,, and we cook them,,, its a rare delicacy here in San Felipe'' I felt real sick at the thought of what i had just eaten :eek: as the waiter left my table i looked up at the door and saw Brett coming in with arm loads of shopping,,,,, ''have you eaten yet'' Brett asks,,, ''yes'' i replied,,, '' what did you have'' he said,,, '' i had the meat balls they are just great,, you must try them'' i replied,,,,,, trying not to laugh and let on. So Brett orderd the meat balls,,, but when the waiter served Bretts meal i noticed that his meat balls were much smaller than the ones i had eaten :roll: ,,,,,,,,,,, Brett ate all of his meal and said how much he enjoyed it,,,,,,,, when the waiter came over to clear our table i asked him why my buddies meat balls were so much smaller than the ones i had eaten,,, the waiter replied '' Ha Senor,,, sometime the bull,,, HE WIN'' :D

Mel. That reminds me of when as a boy of 15 and I was visiting my uncle's pig farm where I was served, along with everyone else at the table, "praire oysters". I knew what they were before I ate them. They were delicious. I can't wait to tell that joke. How are you and Brett? Did Brett get to build the Baja that he said he would. Richard.
