I went to Crema for Restaurant Week dinner with Elena. It was a really great deal - three courses from their regular menu of your choosing. Unfortunately some of the flavor combos didn't work for me, but it was a good deal with good service so can't complaint too much. I wouldn't come back though.
 |
| Taquitos de Chilorio - Slow-cooked pork mini tacos chile ancho,
jalapeño vinegar, chipotle-cilantro drizzle
and crema. Elena seemed to enjoy. I had a bite and the meat was tasty |
 |
| Ceviche de Pulpo y Camaron - Grilled african octopus, poached shrimp,
mango citrus marinated,pickled onion,
jalapeno, avocado. The mango was very over powering. Usually ceviche is in a kind of broth versus this thick goop. I couldn't even finish because the flavor was too sweet :( |
 |
| Callo de Hacha con Chile Morita y Mango - Dry scallops pan seared in chile morita,
zucchini-sweet corn cake, avocado
mousse, mango pico de gallo, chipotle aioli. Elena got this and seemed to enjoy it all. I enjoyed the corn cake a lot |
 |
| Tacos de Carne Asada - Adobo-marinated grilled skirt steak, black
beans served in corn tortillas. Very tasty but not super memorable |
 |
| Churros - Cinnamon dusted churros,
chocolate and cajeta dipping sauce. Loved both sauces |
 |
| Pastel de Tres Leches - Sponge cake soaked in three milks
coconut caramel
mango syrup
dulce de leche ice cream. Great flavors but we were both pretty stuffed |
