We didn't feel like venturing too far and decided to go back upstairs
to Piso 7. On our other visit I'd seen chamorro de cerdo en adobo on
the menu; the English subtitle said "garnished of pork with sauce,"
which sense none at all makes, and Lilli's phone translation program
came up with something like "pig from Guam in chipotle," which was not much better.

Which explains the chamorro recipes attached to my messages... ;)

What we got was a two-pound pork shank in a well-balanced not very hot ancho sauce, served with rice, beans, and sweet plantain slices. It
was as expected and beyond, pretty much the best dish I've ever had in Latin America, with the possible exception of a well-marbled rare steak
in Buenos Aires. Lilli enjoyed the very tender and flavorful pork but really liked the rice and beans, which elated me. I got all the
plantains, which were almost as sweet as regular bananas and served as
a needed accent to the pound plus of meat that I got. As a
well-trimmed serving should, this offered enough but not too much
gristle and enough but not too much fat in addition. Thinking on it, we probably got a kilo or more all told.

Sounds lovely... :) Definitely plenty for the two of you to share... :)

For afters we had two offerings sourced from an esteemed local
patisserie whose name I forget.
A chocolate mousse was surprisingly not very chocolaty though quite
dark. The texture was a little on the gelatinized side. I'd grade it a pass to high pass; next time I'd give it a pass altogether.
A caramel cinnamon cheesecake was of fine, fluffy texture, bright
flavor, and not too sweet. Magna cum laude.

Should you return, you'll know which to get... :)

drink I'd never seen, Manzanita del Sol (bearberries of the sun), so I figured I'd try it, seldom encountering kinnikinnick berries, much
less a soda made out of them. The stuff tasted like a green Jolly
Rancher but less interesting; it turns out that it's so named because
it contains a whopping 1% apple juice (manzanita also meaning little apple). It's a Pepsi product.

Something else to avoid... ;)

... There is no feast that does not come to an end.
