San Antonio Mini-Foodstock, May 2003

Laurie Thompson, formerly of Syracuse and now a Texan (hooray!) met us for a mini-Foodstock on a warm late spring night in San Antonio. At the suggestion of Blake and Barbara, we tried Mando's Mexican Seafood Restaurant, a little bitty family place right downtown - it was good! Laurie brought her colleague, Jim., who fit right in - besides being head of a medical library in Chicago, he's also a cookbook collector!

The gang of six outside Mando's Restaurant - (l to r: Jim, Barbara, Blake, Lyn, Michael, Laurie)

First course, guacamole and Modelo Mexican beer - yum.

Laurie does justice to the guacamole and gets back into eating Tex-Mex!

Jim's combo plate was probably the winner, although everything was good - his plate featured a bell pepper with white queso.

Another fun meeting of Foodwine listmembers - thanks, everyone, for the great company and conversation.
