Mexican food a is a godsend for my son who is allergic to wheat and dairy, although maybe a little too much.<br /><br />I had heard about Rosa Mexicano when it opened in DC so we took him and his buddies there last spring after a trip to the Spy Museum for his birthday. <br /><br />I probably should have checked out the prices a little beforehand, but I love taking kids out to cool restaurants and just watching. <br /><br />Being a Navy family, Chinese food was our go-to night out. I will never forget my old man taking us to an authentic place in Chinatown in NYC in the 70's (the Son of Sam summer) during a family road trip. The seven of us were the only honkies in the joint. An old Navy buddy of his - some eccentric Jewish lawyer from Manhattan told him about the place. It was very cool.<br /><br />You've inspired me to start writing down these stories about my folks while they are still with us.Paul in NoVAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05852228787907680110noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1349290550527925310.post-37564523464855111382012-05-03T11:54:08.246-04:002012-05-03T11:54:08.246-04:00I grew up in El Paso, and while I don't miss t...I grew up in El Paso, and while I don't miss the city much, I do still miss the food!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1349290550527925310.post-53069748543377618012012-05-03T11:06:14.370-04:002012-05-03T11:06:14.370-04:00I would have had you pegged for a Vegas guy.
