Ladies lunch at El pargo y La Vaca

Wednesday's lunch was at a new restaurant hear Marina Mazatlan.  Good reviews on Foodies and close to home.  Unfortunately I have been battling a stomach/intestinal bug and couldn't go. I don't have much appetite right now and I didn't want to eat out.  The group is diminishing as everyone starts to head home so there were only six ladies.  Ruth kindly took some pictures and gave me a run down of the experience.  Sounds like it was all good. 

I made a reservation for eight but in the end there were only six which is actually much nicer than the huge groups we have had lately.  The ladies sat outside and Ruth did say that they probably should have been inside as it's been chilly and windy again.  As usual the music was too loud but most places accommodate us by turning it down so we can talk.  

Connie had a vegetarian fettuccine.  

Pat's fish in sauce. 

Susie ordered shrimp in maple syrup which is something I have never seen on a menu. Ruth said it smelled delicious 

Ruth and Georgia shared three appetizers and she said they only needed two!  

All appetizers were very good. 

Appetizer.

Chantal ordered a shrimp burger. 

I do note that the food all looked very well presented and the ladies gave the restaurant a thumbs up so our winning streak is holding.  Apparently the waiter had to have the boss come out and answer Ruth's questions!  She said he brought out a sample of raw tenderloin and sausage for them.  That's good PR for the restaurant and it looks like somewhere I'd like to eat.  There was only one other table of four there and they were inside.  The ladies stayed outside and gabbed and ate.  In the end a good time was had by all..good food, good friends and a good time.  Only a a couple of lunches left and down to five of us.
