Day 36 - South American Cusine at Latitudes

If you are familiar with Latitudes restaurant in Auburn, you know all about their monthly menu rotation.  Each month they feature foods from around the globe, along with their regular menu.  This month is South American Cuisine.  How about Andean Winter Beef Stew (Huatia)
Tri tip stewed with basil, mint, cilantro, rosemary and parsley with balsamic vinegar and onions for hours till very tender. A dish from the Quechua speaking people around Lima, Peru.  Or maybe
Prawns, Rock Shrimp, and Clams in Coconut Sauce (Camarão con Coco)
A Brazilian dish; seared prawns, rock shrimp, and clams with onions simmered in a coconut sauce made slightly spicy with paprika.
They always have a nice selection of vegetarian dishes to choose from, as well.  Not just your usual vegetarian meals, but really tasty creative dishes.  I have never been disappointed with a meal here. Great ambiance, wine and food.
