Good Eats For The Trip – #3

After our Arches National Park experience, it was back to Southwestern Colorado once again. Next stop, Cortez, CO. It was another 2 hours and 112 miles to go before settling in for the night.

Once in Cortez, we checked into our hotel and walked around town a bit to find a good place for dinner. We chose a family owned Mexican restaurant. We all agreed it was an excellent choice and a great way to end the day. Dinner was at Mi Mexico.

The decor inside Mi Mexico was very Southwestern and eclectic, which made it fun.

!La comida estaba delicioso! The food was delicious! We sampled many fantastic dishes and everyone was very full and very satisfied at the end of the meal. We had beef fajitas,

albondigas,

camarones al mojo de ajo or shrimp with a garlic mushroom sauce, and a smothered burrito.

For dessert, o postres, we sampled some sopapillas with honey and cinnamon and deep-fried ice cream.

After dinner, we walked back to the hotel for more fun and games. It felt good to walk around a bit. We brought a bunch of games to play for our evening entertainment, and every night was filled with lots of laughs, lots of comraderie and lots of fun.

Live, love, eat, and make the most our of everyday. Stay safe and stay well. ‘Til next time.

Mi Mexico is located at 801 E Main St, Cortez, CO 81321. They open at 11:00 AM and you can dine inside or outside on the patio.
