November 12th 2016: Meals in Marlborough and Medford

We started off today with breakfast at Villatoro Cafe and Restaurant, a diner with Guatemalan food on the menu in Marlborough.

Along with a Hot Chocolate,

we got the El Benedicto (2 poached eggs on top of homemade biscuit topped with tomato slices, pork carnitas and finished with a ranchero hollandaise sauce, served with home fries)

and the Adobo Pork Chops (pork chops marinated in brine and seasoned with traditional Guatemalan adobo, served with black beans, rice),

along with the Apple Crisp for dessert.

The eggs were interestingly good, as was the dessert, although the beans were a little salty, and the pork a little dry. Overall, a pretty interesting diner with interesting stuff on the menu.

Lunch was in Medford at Simple Fare Delicatessen, a small but nice looking deli with Italian food on the menu.

We got the Frutti di Mare (A combination of Mussels, Clams, Shrimp and Mahi Mahi sauteed with garlic and oil in a tomato sauce over a mound of linguine)

and the Eggplant Parmigiana (Hand Breaded Cutlet Topped with Provolone Cheese and Our Famous Marinara Sauce. Served with Linguine).

Neither were any good though in my opinion. Not coming back again.
