Ristra decoration at a Mexican restaurant in Sierra Vista, Arizona. By the time the food arrived I didn't feel like taking a picture -- anyway chicken mole with rice & salad isn't much to look at. |
Last night we ate at the Mexican restaurant next door to our motel -- the food was passable, the waiting time was really annoying. The same thing happened the previous night... not-too-bad classic Italian food, terrible wait, annoying attitude of management. Frankly, we don't know how to learn from this: we did look at online reviews! Just bad luck, we guess.
Tonight we did better at the Wagon Wheel Saloon in Patagonia, Arizona. |
I guess that's the eponymous wagon wheel above the bar. |
The green chili cheeseburgers came out very promptly. I told you we weren't going gourmet! |
When we finished eating the sun had set, and we walked up the hillside near our Bed & Breakfast, a lovely place. |
To give you an idea of what we're doing here: this pond is near the San Pedro River where we took a long walk. |
In the late afternoon we watched many birds including this family of Gambel's Quail. The chicks are a little bit camouflaged but you can see them between their mom & dad. |
Don't you hate it when you end up at a restaurant and it's so disappointing? We felt that way at Corktown's Mercury Bar. The food took forever (not that huge a crowd), it wasn't cooked to order and even though it came to the table late, it was not hot. Their reason? The computer broke. You know, whatever happened to reading an order from a slip of paper written in pen or pencil? Sorry -- the computer has nothing to do with the grill and fryer!
