Margaritas with Friends

There is a small group of us that tries to get together once a month to check out a new, or new to us, restaurant. The group has been getting together for a number of years and I joined them about 2 years ago.  For the ease of scheduling in my calendar, I refer to it as "dinner group."  Well last nice was dinner group and Sarah, Nathan, Jolene and I got together and had dinner at Casa Oaxaca (pronounced wa-HA-ca, which we all enjoyed saying) in Adams Morgan.

It's  always nice catching up over drinks and yummy food. Last night our dinner started out with jicama slices with a little paprika and lime juice. Then we order a pitcher of house margaritas and for my entree I had soft tacos with veggies, beans and rice.  While there were not a lot of vegan options on the menu, this dish was very good and I was definitely satisfied.

Next month we're thinking about going to one of the new restaurants in Columbia Heights. James, any suggestions?  Tonight Grant and I have reservations at Vegetate for restaurant week. We're very excited and I know they'll be lots of vegan options to choose from :)
