Treats in New York!<br />

by David J. Cox<br />

Entering New York City is always a<br />

pleasure, whether for the first time<br />

or the 50th, the skyline, sounds and<br />

scents overwhelm the senses!<br />

Food, Food, Food!<br />

There are thousands of restaurants of all<br />

sizes, flavours, tastes and cultures, and our<br />

visit offered samplings from eight of the<br />

city’s tastiest and trendiest best!<br />

Our first taste of New York? Well, it made<br />

me want to move to New York just to be<br />

able to visit these two next flavourful fiesta<br />

favorites!<br />

Viva Mexico at MEXICUE<br />

Mexicue started as the brainchild of David<br />

Schillace and Thomas Kelly, who took two<br />

of America’s favorite comfort foods,<br />

Mexican & BBQ, and blended them into a<br />

Food Truck mega-success.<br />

Fast forward a couple of years, and we are<br />

all enjoying amazing guacamole, I eat the<br />

best black-bean burrito I have ever had, my<br />

wife enjoys blackened fish tacos, and the<br />

house Poblano Mac’nCheese is deemed<br />

delicious by both kids. I also get to taste<br />

some of the over 50 varieties of Tequila<br />

available all in the comfort of their beautiful<br />

5th avenue restaurant! The `mouthwatering<br />

union` of the blended flavors leave<br />

an impression, and the Chef came to meet<br />

with us to be sure everything was tasty.<br />

DOS CAMINOS<br />

Deep in the heart of Times Square lies Dos<br />

Caminos, another fantastic restaurant that<br />

exceeded all my expectations. We were<br />

greeted by the manager and led downstairs,<br />

past the impressive and cozy tequila<br />

bar into the wonderful, villa-inspired<br />

restaurant where the full house was being<br />

served plates filled with colors and scents<br />

that got my stomach growling. We started<br />

with a big tub of Butternut, pomegranate<br />

and chipotle guacamole, accompanied by<br />

an ever-full basket of nachos and 3 salsas.<br />

Offering tacos of all sorts, house specialties<br />

and Street food, the choices were endless.<br />

We settled on Chorizo Fundito with<br />

Mexican cheeses, dark beer, spicy chorizo<br />

and warm corn tortillas; Dos Enchiladas, a<br />

house specialty with roasted chicken, queso<br />
