Hot Weather & Good Food

Cafe around the corner

The shop around the corner

This week the weather has been ultra high with the heat index reaching over 109 degrees. I know this type of weather is a typical day out West, but for us, it's scorching HOT! In these photos, we were getting take-out at a Dominican cafe. We LOVE Dominican food, or Caribbean meals for that matter. My husband's step father growing up was a Dominican chef so every now and then my Cuban husband will dig something out of the mix from the Dominican burner. The Dominican cafe we go to is THE BOMB. It's located in the Hispanic district of town. They often run out of food when we try to order. They call the woman who cooks and owns the restaurant La Doctora. Oh, and trust me, you know when she is not cooking because the food does not taste the same. She's got those magic cooking hands.
Well, Anywho,we went to the cafe the other day. It was too hot to cook at home. In these photos, we are waiting for our take out while, my husband gives our son a cold water bottle. This is the first time we ever see him drink from a straw. P.S. Yes, we know that is a large baby! LOL!  I hope everyone is enjoying their summer!
