February 13, 2013. Nuevo, Vallarta, Mexico. The Last Supper.

Three of us voted.  Ken did not care where we ate,  so would not vote.   Our decision was to eat our last supper at the little restaurant down the street, called La Isla, the same one that was called Rosa's and before that it was  called the Taco Place.  Every year it has gotten better.  It has evidently gotten trendy.   Today we went for dinner at 3:00 and by the time we left, every table in the tiny outside restaurant was full.  Of course, they have only seven tables but they were full the whole time we were there.

Rosa is the cook and owner and her son was our waiter.  He is very sweet and helpful.   I felt sure that the restaurant was run by a family so I asked our young waiter if the cook was his mother.   He grinned and said, "Actually, she is my boss".    After he took our order, he proudly said , "and she is my mother too", and smiled.

We three voted to eat there because the food is excellent...and it is inexpensive.   Sitting outside is also always a plus.  Tomorrow, Don and Doreen will return to the land of ice and snow.  We will miss them.  Our last supper together was a  pleasure, with wonderful food and good company.  We voted well.
