Pete shot from the hip, and hit a home run today.  We went to the Division Care, a Costa Rican restaurant.  It is in a pedestrian plaza (didn't know that existed!) in downtown Somerville.

We sat outside, it was a gorgeous day.  Pete noticed on the sandwich board menu outside that they were voted the best empanadas in NJ.  I am not sure who officiated that, but the empanadas were awesome!  I had chorizo and cheese, Pete had chipotle chicken.  Both were fabulous, with potatoes, peppers and onions in the filling...

Pete had the Chicken Milanese Wrap (is that Costa Rican?).  He loved it.  Nothing fancy, just big and delicious.  It came with steak fries that were actually crispy, a rare thing.

I had the Arroz Cantones.  Ham, shrimp, bacon, pulled beef, pulled chicken, bell peppers, onions, and veggies in stir fried rice.  It was like a flavor convention, and everyone showed up.  It was awesome.

I can't vouch for the authenticity of the Costa Rican food.  It was my first time.  But we loved it.
