Frontera Grill

Frontera Grill Guacamole

I had high expectations for Frontera Grill, but like an over-achieving mother with her grand ambitions for small child, the poor restaurant needed to be some other kind of good in order to fulfill my dreams.

A plate of rice and beans that bizarrely had some giant tortilla chips sticking out of it.

The absolute best thing of the evening was the cream covering Plantanos con Crema. I was like an addict on crack and could not get enough of it. I kept on dipping the tines of my fork back into the rich stuff over and over and over again.
