Who doesn't like Mexican food? Honestly, I don't. But every once in awhile, I eat Mexican and don't die. Recently I heard from two different people about this great hidden Mexican restaurant gem in Fells Point. And to cap it off--as all good things come in threes--I was sent an invite to the same restaurant to see a friend of a friend of a friend's yarn art exhibit. What is this 3-time recommended restaurant? Arcos on Broadway. The best Mexican food I've ever had. And that is saying a lot.
The restaurant has a covered outdoor area in the back with heaters (that mostly work) and a Mariachi band traveling from table to table. The hosts were two 10 year old girls--probably the owners kids. There was a large birthday party seated next to us and they added to the festive atmosphere. I really dig this place.
Next door was the art show along with Paco the artist. He sees in 3D. He creates these yarn pictures that come alive with 3D glasses. He told us how he always tried to explain to people his pictures were in 3D--but it wasn't until he accidentally looked at them with the special glasses how others could see what he already saw. Even without the glasses--his work is pretty cool. Check it out here!
