Pineapple Margarita and Mexican corn

Margarita Ingredients:

1 cup Ice

1/2 cup Frozen pineapple

4 ounces Pineapple juice

1/4 cup Orange juice

2 tablespoons Lime juice

1/2 cup Tequila

2 tablespoons Honey

Tajin for the rim

We thought it needed more pineapple flavor and are going to try again with more pineapple and more pineapple juice. Also I'd rather use triple sec than orange juice.

Corn Ingredients:

Corn on the cob, boiled about 5 minutes

Mayo

Garlic powder

Lime juice

Tajin

Cilantro

Cojita cheese

Mix the mayo with some garlic powder and lime juice and brush onto corn.

Add cojita cheese to a plate and roll the corn in it.

Sprinkle lime juice over the corn.

Press cilantro into the corn. I couldn't get it to really stick without pressing.

Sprinkle as much Tajin as you want.

Raku

Last night our friends had reservations for Raku and invited us along. We went to the Bethesda location but there is also a location near Dupont Circle and in Arlington. http://www.rakuasiandining.com/ They only had chopsticks at the table and I'm terrible at using them Luckily everyone else at the table was great at using chopsticks. When our friends were served the tofu salad (this looked good and you must love seaweed) they brought them forks but they used chopsticks and I scored a fork :) Our friends also ordered some spring rolls but the spring rolls on the menu seemed to come with shrimp which I dont eat. The dipping sauces that came with their rolls looked really good. The presentation of the dish was really nice They split an entree which was a bento box with beef tenderloin with pomegranate wine sauce (they said the sauce was divine) and an assortment of fish, tempura veggies, some mushrooms etc. It was a huge box of food My husband and I ordered 8 tempura green bean s...
