iguana it's been a while since i got the time to upload photos. the first week of work has been extremely busy and i really can't wait for friday to come. went out with mike and joyce last weekend for some mexican food at iguana, clarke quay. at first we were pretty lost. nobody bothered to get the address, just remembered that it was at riverside point (yes, obviously nobody learned their lesson from malacca). however, when we arrived, the brightly coloured interior, common to most mexican restaurants, was striking enough to draw our attention.   we sat at a high table, convenient for tall people. even after sitting down for a while, i was still blown away by the colours. they were so cheerful and brightened the atmosphere of the place.   wonderful nachos. they came in huge bowls, usually a bowl for 4 customers. there were six of us and they gave us two bowls. everyone was munching happily and oblivious to the amount eaten. before we knew it, everything was gone. i think the tasty salsa helped a lot too. needless to say, we were pretty full just by eating the chips.   one of the first things i do when i try out a new restaurant is to zoom to the dessert section. i was scanning and i couldn't decide. everything sounded so good, especially the banana chimichangas and green apple enchiladas.  lime margarita. ordered a pitcher, they had happy hour. i never really like to drink alcohol and the tequila was very strong (which is actually their main selling point). i would prefer a virgin margarita. also, their margaritas come in very unique flavours like soursop and blueberry.          after pondering, we settled on banana chimichangas. it was served with avocado ice cream and caramel sauce. the ice cream was divine! total avocado taste just smells in your mouth. the chimichangas on the other hand had too much flour. overall, it was a really high carbo meal. quesadillas, fajitas, chimichangas. was extremely full after that. i felt that while all the dishes were reasonably priced, less than $20, i still prefer margarita's. the food at margarita's is more professionally prepared and taste unique. most importantly, not all dishes have to have flour there. |
