Oyamel

Just got home from a wonderful dinner at Oyamel. It's a nouveau-Mexican restaurant in DC. Great stuff. They take traditional Mexican food and elaborate beautifully. I don't know of a Mexican restaurant that emphasizes traditional food so fundamentally. Corn fungus, for example. Good stuff. Oyster ceviche. Oh yeah. Chiles and chocolate. Yay! But grasshoppers?

When I got home I flossed a 'hopper leg out of my teeth.

It was better the first time I tasted it.
