La Familia

I’ve officially tasted my first “family meal” at the restaurant I work at. Yesterday morning, a few of the kitchen guys were collecting money and I inquired what they were pooling money for. Jose, one of the bus boys, told me they were going to purchase a giant hunk of beef to make something for lunch. I gave in my pesos, and two hours later saw a massive 25-pound piece of beef. Three hours later I was slurping down a delicious guisado with a few grilled tortillas.

Delicious.
