January 30th 2016: Hanging Out at the Burlington Mall

While at the Burlington Mall today, we decided to have lunch at the Besito Mexican here, a pretty upscale restaurant.
They make the guacamole fresh literally, right beside the table for you.
We got the Ensalada Jaiba (Crispy jumbo lump crab cake, mesculine greens, roasted corn, tomatoes, jicama, queso fresco, avocado green chile dressing),
the Calabaza (Squash blossoms, roasted green chile, queso Chihuahua, crimini and button mushrooms, salsa verde cruda, pico de gallo, crema) quesadilla,
and the Elotes de la Calle (Roasted Mexican street corn, queso fresco, chile molido).
The corn was absolutely delicious and a little spicy, as was the salad with the crabmeat. The quesadilla was excellent as well, although it had onions.

As we were leaving, we were given churros for parting desserts,
which were a little hard unfortunately. The Guatemalan worry dolls that came along too were pretty cute though.

Overall, the best Mexican meal I have had to date, with a nice ambience to boot.

While wandering around, I decided to get the Shark Attack mini cupcakes from Shotcakes, located at the food court, which are topped with ice cream instead of cream, a pretty interesting concept.
 Not bad too.

Later in the afternoon, we spent some time at Revere Beach

in Revere,
State Police
Wonderland T Station
and then headed to Deer Island for a bit

before calling a day when the sun finally set.
