Weird meat I ate this week


Anyone who knows me knows that I have a hard time passing up the opportunity to try new or adventurous food and this week I happened to get a few different opportunities.  On Monday TJ and I went to the rodeo and had a great time seeing the baby farm animals, watch the bull riding and other rodeo events, and of course at the Styx concert.  Among the other food we ate we decided to try the fried gator on a stick.

We’re still not sure it wasn’t just an expensive chicken strip, but it sure was tasty!

Friday night before my symphony concert we went to dinner with some friends (shout out to those who came and supported me, it was a fun concert!).  It was this little hole-in-the-wall Jamaican restaurant, Caribbean Cuisine, in a sketchy part of town.  But the food was delicious!


Here is a quick picture of our plate.  We shared the combo and chose curried goat, jerk chicken, and oxtail for our meats.  Before this we ate some meat and veggie pies that were quite yummy.  They were similar to empanadas.

Next week’s menu is going to seem downright boring compared to this week!
