Roaming Cattle Restraunt

This past weekend we were looking for somewhere to go in Tacoma, with great food, drinks, wine and atmosphere. Trying to branch out from the same old, same old. We had never been to El Gaucho's, soo...the plan was to try them out. Well our friends we would be having dinner with heard about this NEW Place called ASADO. An Argentinian themed resturant. Some may have already heard of it, but it was new to us.http://www.thenewstribune.com/soundlife/food/story/5465229p-4931396c.html

So, those of you who know me pretty well, I am not very open minded and had a rush of panic come over me about the fine cuisine of Argentina. OMG what was I in for, it was rather frightenening. I didn't want to be a stick in the mud, and was let in on a little secret that it all had to do with STEAKS, STEAKS., and more STEAK. Hence, the roaming cattle thing. I threw my ignorance of geography, and fine dining in foreign countries out the window, and said oh, what the hell, can't go wrong with fine cattle.

It was absolutely scrumpscious, Fried banana chips, a steak in this wonderful sauce, and purple mashed potatoes. Yummmmmmmmyyyyy!!!! And to end the evening with fried bananas, choc sauce, and vanilla bean icecream. No complaints on the food, music, drinks, (just the noise level) A little hard to hear, pretty much had very little voice as we stepped outside, but all in all a great nite of food, friends, and a little bit of freedom from the rushed dinners with Ben....
