so the other day i was working out in Ditmas Park and went to the delightful Cinco de Mayo Restaurant for lunch. seriously, if you ever find yourself in the neighborhood you should definitely hit them up. the mole is epic.
anyway! whilst trying to order something for lunch i had the following exchange with the nice old lady that works there.
me: i want the pollo asada platter. but i don't want rice and beans on the side, i want salad. and any dairy that usually comes on it, like sour cream or cheese or whatever, can you leave that off?
lady: yes.
me: great! so, pollo asada platter with no rice and beans or dairy?
lady: yes.
me: awesome. (pause) actually can i get salad and beans but no rice? is that ok?
lady: yes.
me: ok great, that's what i want. (pause) i'm sorry, i don't think i want the beans actually, just the salad.
lady: no beans?
me: weeeell...
lady: you want the chicken, the salad, some guacamole and salsa, no tortillas and a diet coke.
me: how did you know??
lady: on a diet?
me: yes.
no jokes, this happened to me.
apparently i wasn't the first person to come into Cinco de Mayo with a weight loss agenda...
on the up side, my lunch was really delicious, only 9 points and now i know exactly what to order the next time i go to a taqueria!
'til next time!
