La Cantina

Earlier today, The Boy & I went for for an impromptu lunch at a local Mexican restaurant called La Cantina.

It wasn't quite how we had planned to spend the day though...
At around midday, I received a message on facebook from Vodka Revs:

However, when we (Sj, Jd, Dan & myself) got there at ten past three, we were told that too many people had come & they weren't giving any more out!
At the time, I wasn't sure what to be more offended about - the fact we looked like we'd just come for the free lunch, or that they hadn't stated anything about availability on the email! Tsk.

So after that Sj & Jd went for a wander in the rain & me & Dan were planning on going to Asda (to stock up on essentials like doughnuts).

But then! We walked past La Cantina & it happened that the 'A-board' outside was advertising their weekday lunch offer, which is amazing!

I didn't happen to take a picture, but luckily they have one on their website;

I had the quesadilla with 'yucatan'(pork) & fajita spiced fries, Dan had quesadilla with fajita chicken & fries too. We also got some chilli popcorn to share as a starter.
It was Amazing! Really, really good food, service & atmosphere!
Or, as Dan puts it "the food was sooo good!".
Will definitely be going back soon!

I really like the little touches such as the real chillies hanging from the ceiling. & the music was pretty good too - I can't remember any specific songs that were played (useless), but it was a good mixture & pretty daytime appropriate.
