Went to my favorite Mex/Mex restaurant and ordered my usual Cocktail de
Camarone (shrimp Coctail). This is usually peeled medium shrimp cooked and
served in a dressing that is almost a cross between gazpacho and pico de
gallo with lots of cilantro and sliced avocado. I usually like to splash on
some lime juice and a really good glug of Tapatio hotsauce.
I did not realize until more than halfway through that I had inadvertently
dumped like a quarter bottle of El Yucateco Green Hab sauce into my shrimp
instead of the Tapatio. There was nothing to be done by then other than
wiping my brow and nose and just plow on through…
Was the sparkiest mouthful I’ve had since one of Doug’s evil cookies or one
of Chip’s Brazilian Wild chiles! Will spare the list any details on how
things “work themselves out…”
