One of the very few things that Europe does not do well is Mexican food. We have had the HARDEST time finding a good Mexican restaurant. I remember this being the case when I lived in Frankfurt as well. After having such a hard time being deprived of Mexican food this semester, Nicole, Maggie and I thought it was only right to celebrate our favorite Mexican holiday, Cinco de Mayo. We sent out an invite to all of our friends here and then started planning the menu.
Nicole, Maggie and I were not quite as impressed with the selection at our normal grocery store so we researched online and found a Mexican grocery store in Vienna! We went on a mini-adventure and found this store. They had the BEST tortilla chips, tequila at a better price than the grocery and Margarita Mix (which we haven't been able to find, ANYWHERE) so we were happy campers. We spent Sunday morning (El Cinco De Mayo) cooking and preparing the food. Everyone came around 3 and enjoyed our delicious cuisine, as well as homemade Jell-O Shots and Maggie, Nicole and I enjoyed some delicious Margaritas! It was a fun afternoon of good food, good drinks and good company. Everyone was complimentary of all the work we did and we were happy to do it. Definitely a great memory I will look back on for years to come.
