Cacique Restaurant November 27, 2011 at 9:56 pm

One of the things I love about living in Frederick, MD is the adorable downtown with the fabulous eateries. One of my favorite places is Cacique Restaurant. Their Web site boasts “A celebration of Mexican and Spanish cuisine is what you will find at Cacique. We offer a fine dining experience in a comfortable, cozy atmosphere with great food, reasonable cost and exceptional service.” And it is mostly true. Having been to Mexico, I can tell you that the Mexican dishes totally take me back to Cancun. I have not tried the Spanish menu, but it does look incredible.

Date Night: Famous Dave’s Barbecue August 25, 2011 at 10:29 pm

Won’t be going back there for a while. Started feeling nauseated not even halfway through the meal. Oh, but do try the mac and cheese. That was tasty. They use four types of cheese and add a little bit of corn and jalapeno. Very creamy and the corn adds a little bit of sweetness and the jalapeno gave it a nice kick. Avoid the green beans. They were gross. The Saint Louis ribs were a tad dry and it was difficult to get the meat off the bone (that’s what she said). The sauce was good, though. The brisket was, as always, beautiful.

So, I’ve been trying to report an issue with FourSquare for BlackBerry and am getting nowhere. Apparently because it’s a free application it’s allowed to be a broken piece of shit. Anyway. Here’s my original ticket:
