There is a new Mexican place that just opened in Souk Al Bahar (forgetting the name, El Fuente, maybe). Also do the fresh gauc at the table thing.

Place was pretty good, they just had a soft opening a couple weeks ago but have not had their official grand opening yet. Supposedly in another week

Ok, here's my recipe.

Izzy's World Famous Guacamole

4 avocados, puréed
1 medium tomato, chopped
1/2 white onion, chopped
Salt to taste

Mix ingredients in a bowl. Add salt to taste. Serve immediately. Enjoy :D Easy peasy, and a crowd pleaser too (I have photos of people licking the bowl clean)

Most places mentioned above will add other ingredients such as olive oil, pepper, lemon juice, etc etc etc but IMO is innecessary and it only ruins the taste of the avocados. A small amount of lime juice is ok to keep it from going dark, but don't add too much.

BTW the avocado is ready when you push the stem and it gives in slightly but it doesn't squash. The skin should be very dark green or brown and even in color.

I sense a belated Cinco de Mayo party at Izzy's :D or even perhaps a Cinco de Junio :D

Who's in? I'll bring the tortilla chips! :clap2:

Doodle obviously has the tequila although the bottle might be empty by the time he gets to Izzy's :p
