KS aka paneer king has been MIA for the past two weeks burying himself in some grant work. So when he was finally free..he dropped by on Friday evening. While I was all game to eat out, the guys had a different idea. What was to be a simple dinner by da boys, became an elaborate mexican menu plan in no time.
We had Salsa and tortilla chips to tide us over till dinner got ready at about 10pm. Salsa recipe has also been posted.
