Listen to Liz....go to BARTACO!!!

  This one is a MUST! I found out about this restaurant through Liz Johnson's blog on lohud.  I'm almost a foodie psychic because I can look at a place most of the time and be able to tell you if it's going to be a good one or not.  Me and a couple of girlfriends took a ride to Port Chester to eat at this tapas place what a great place this is.  The entire concept of this place is one you will not see just anywhere.  First, the atmosphere was so enjoyable because on a cold snowy winter like we've been having it was so nice to go to a place that made you feel like you were beach front while sipping your margarita.  The place is decorated very nautical with beautiful basket lights hanging from the ceiling, lots of lounge areas, and even a foot rest under your booth for your feet!  I mean these people have thought of it all.  When it comes to ordering, instead of a waiter taking your order, at each table there are pencils and an order form with a list of everything on their menu you just write how many and what size you want, clip it in the holder and they come pick it up for you.  If you want to get the attention of one of the wait staff all you have to do is clip your little flag up and they come love it so much fun.

   Now about the food lol!  We started off with a pitcher of Clarico which is fresh cut fruit and liqueur with the wine of your choice added.  We had baja fish tacos, thai shrimp tacos, pork chili verde tacos, beef al carbon tacos, roast chicken tacos, grilled corn, stewed beans with pork, pork and chicken tamales, cheese quesadillas, sopa de pollo, shrimp ceviche, guacamole and half a rotisserie chicken.  We finished off with some churros with chocolate sauce and coconut gelato.  And Yes! We ate it all just us three girls lol!  The tamales were to die for very tasty with a touch of spice.  The thai shrimp tacos and pork chili verde tacos were my favorite.  They bring everything out to you on small  trays and some brown butcher paper.  Everything was made very simple but tasty and delicious just the way I like it.  The guacamole was a real treat we put some on top of our ceviche and YUMMY!!  The churros you could tell were made fresh to order and the coconut gelato had slices of real coconut inside.  All I have to say is if Liz Johnson suggests a place I recommend you give it a try.  Thanks Liz ;)  Check out the website: http://www.bartaco.com/
