A Mexican Feast at Mamacita in BGC

I recently got to try a new place: Mamacita in BGC. It's a pretty new I hadn't been time to visit the Burgos Circle area in a couple of years. I do like Mexican food so I was looking forward to this dinner.

We were there on a Saturday night so it was quite loud. It might have not been the most ideal place to try and catch up with people (I felt like I was shouting most of the night and my voice from trying to compete with the loud music haha) but it did have a great, energetic vibe. I really love the interior!

It is beautifully designed with Mexican-style decor inside

They have a private room that looks really cool. (No one was using it when we were there so I managed to take some photos inside.)

I really liked the food here. Their tacos are really good...

Not the best photo of their taco but it was really good

...and I also enjoyed their quesadillas.

We shared Elote, which is grilled corn, chipotle mayo, sesame, Doritos, and seaweed.

We ordered a few other dishes, including the Chorizo Queso Fundido, and some drinks (I didn't quite like their Mamacita Sangria which I didn't like that much because I guess I'm not a fan of red wine and tequila haha but I did like the Paloma). They have two desserts on the menu: churros and Piloncillo Ice Cream. Many of us got the ice cream, which is described as Mexican Brown Sugar, Charred Pineapple, Arbol Caramel, and Butterscotch Chip). This was quite good.

I'm really glad that our dinner pushed through. These are people that I hung out with a lot around 15-20 years ago and I didn't really get to see them as a group for a long time, up until I joined a dinner with my friend Anne last year. It was over that dinner that people got to talking about trying to meet each other more regularly. It did take about a year to get that done, but we finally did.
