As many of you know, a good dinner is the essential basis of a night out for Linda and I and we were not disappointed this evening when we dined at La Casona del Guaton - one of the best Parillada restaurants in town. The steaks were excellent and cooked to perfection – despite Linda's concerns at the length of time they were on the grill. In addition, our waiter, who was as attentive and helpful as could be, was the spitting image of one of our neighbours at Moyhill.
Our fellow customers provided some additional entertainment but the highlight was the delivery of Linda's cafe cortado. First the waiter delivered our cups and the tub of Nescafe powder and then returned with a pot of hot water and a jug of warm milk. After Linda had spooned out a measure of instant coffee to her liking, the waiter then spent 2-3minutes mixing in a small amount of milk followed by some hot water and then topped off with more hot water – well worth his tip and LP enjoyed the coffee as well.
Our plan to continue for a nightcap and some music at the local Club de Jazz was derailed when we discovered that it is only open at the weekends. Home for a glass of Pisco and bed as we have to be on the road fairly early tomorrow.
