| - Well Fox Group has done it again! It seems anytime these people decide to open a new restaurant it's always exactly right! Fox's latest edition is no exception.
I went there 2 days in a row: once for lunch and then for dinner. This place used to be a Ling and Louis Asian place and wasn't all that good. Fox has reinvented the place into Blanco and am I ever glad!
Their cocktails and tequilas menus are extensive and they are not skimpy on the pours. I had a classic margarita on the rocks and it was perfect!
For lunch my friend and I chose to share the Mexican street corn to compliment the complimentary warm chips and fresh and zippy salsa that they serve very table. Remember: try not to fill up on chips before your food arrives, the portions are generous!
My lunch was 3 street style tacos: grilled fish, green chilli pork and grilled chicken. They have a great tacos selection and allow you to mix and match which is great. They were sered with a choice of beans, black or pinto as well as some creamy white rice which was the epitome of comfort food!
All delicious and good value!
When my wife and I returned the next evening for dinner, we had the shrimp and crab ceviche along with the Chios and salsa, we were practically full before the mains arrived as the chips and salsa are irresistible!
We each chose the lasagna-style enchiladas which are stacked and baked not rolled. She had the beef while I chose the pork. Both came out gooey and very satisfying served up again with the choice if beans as well as that fantastic I-want-to-rub-it-all-over-my-naked-body creamy rice!!
Just remembering that meal makes me want to take a nap which is a sign that me likey a lot!
The service is up to the Fox standard of excellent. The Fox servers are always great, though one wonders just how much drilling goes on behind the scenes. I worked for big corporate as a bartender and the training can be pretty intense. It's not so much that they seem to love their jobs as much as they seem terrified to screw up and get fired. In any case one rarely gets less than great service at ANY Fox Group establishment, and I frequent several: The Yard, Arrogant Butcher, Norte, True Food Kitchen, Zin Burger to name a few. I am a huge fan if this company and always take my out of town guests in to at least 2 while they are here.
Muchas Gracias Blanco! I'm so glad I can walk to you from my house!
