We headed for Downtown Brownsville first, figuring there we'd find Ultimo or at the very least some other restaurants. But the Downtown area was more of a commercial place. We drove and drove and next thing we noticed we were literally at the Mexican border. Since neither one of us carried passports we turned around and searched and searched for Ultimo Taco. We finally found it, hiding behind a Jack in the Box. Looked like a serious "real" place - but they didn't have anything that seemed suitable for a vegetarian so we continued to drive around to see what else we could find. Enter Asian Buffet.
I was a little apprehensive... I'm not really the Buffet type. I was ready to eat some cooked-five-hours-ago Lo Mein, but was extremely glad to find that they had a grill... you brought in the raw ingredients for them and they'd make you happy. It was kinda like a cheaper less sophisticaded version of Mongo's from MN. I got me some cellophane noodles, onions, mushrooms, broccoli, pepper, with delish soy sauce, spicy sauce and garlic. Much better than I expected indeed.
However by the time we made it back to the hotel, Glee was over. I guess you win some, you lose some. Let's see what Brownsville brings us tomorrow!
