I had lunch yesterday with P. at Tequila Grande, a Mexican Restaurant in Vienna, VA. I highly recommend this restaurant — and I’m picky about Mexican food, having lived close to the Mexican border for 8 years. I had Chicken Mole enchiladas — yes, you read that correctly, mole in Virginia. It wasn’t great mole, but it was good mole, with just the right amount of chocolate (however, it could have used a bit more heat). The salsa was chunky, hot and flavorful, and the guacamole looked like it had been made shortly before being served. P. had a chicken and ground beef buro that was monstrously huge which she said was quite good.

All in all, it was quite worth the drive, both for the food and the company. If you’re in the area, don’t miss it.
