Eating Out: Amigos Cantina

Day 33 - Thursday, February 2, 2012


I live in a small town. I just looked it up and apparently there are 1,386 people in the Village of Schuylerville. I don't know where all of those people are hiding. (side note: based on the same data, Schuylerville has a 4% minority population. I really don't know where those people are hiding.Just one of the highlights of living in a village like this is the walk-ability. We can walk to the library, several parks, the two diners for breakfast or lunch, the local grocery store and Stewarts for various last minute food items and Amigos Cantina for dinner. Oh Amigos. We've been in love at first bite. 
The best thing about Amigos is I know all of the food is being freshly prepared in their tiny little kitchen. Plus, I see the owner at the farmers market all of the time, so that makes me feel good. My favorite meal at Amigos pre-90 day challenge was their cheese enchiladas or the chicken chimichanga. Of course served with complimentary chips and salsa. Corn, corn and more corn. Now I get their amazing fajitas (sans corn tortilla) and add jalapenos for some extra kick. So amazingly good. The chicken is always cooked perfectly. The homemade guacamole is extraordinary. My mouth is watering just thinking about it and I had it just last night. I love supporting my little local business, getting healthy local food, and getting a little exercise walking there in the process.
