Washington, DC favorite: Tico

I am a big foodie, and I love taking pictures of my food. There’s something magical about snapping the perfect photo — not only because it looks nice but also because I know I’ll remember this moment later. One of Josh’s and my favorite ways to bond is to try new restaurants. Granted, his appetite is much bigger than mine, but I still try to keep up with him. On one Saturday night, he took me to Tico in DC because he trains with one of the Managers — Jason (who is awesome!!). Jason gave us the ultimate experience by picking out what we should try. It was amazing! I’m going to do my best to get some of the dishes’ names right, but just know that if you can only go to ONE restaurant while in DC, I’d recommend this place. The atmosphere, service, and food are some of the best (if not the best!) I’ve ever experienced. Take a look at the photos as proof!

I remember starting off with these deviled eggs, thinking “How great could deviled eggs be?” and I was 100% overwhelmed by these. Like are deviled eggs ever that good? Not normally, but these were perfectly cooked and the texture of the topping essentially melted as you ate it. There was a bit of spice as well, which I loved! (Note to self: get better at reviewing food because I’m not doing this justice.)

This was Tuna Ceviche, another item I didn’t know I would like as much as I did.

A girl and her fresh juice – a love story. Can’t remember how many different flavors I tried, but this was definitely cucumber and definitely my favorite.

To be honest, the food kept coming and I couldn’t keep up with what everything was. But look at these colors! This dish was amazing too.

Well, I will say — no matter how many plates this girl is served, she always remembers the tacos. I instagrammed this photo. It was special.

More delicious food (octopus to the right!) & me trying another juice. Surprised?

This was Josh’s favorite dish. I know it’s got some kind of beef and it was also incredible. The detail is unreal.

I believe this was a grapefruit drink (non-alcoholic) — super fresh! They had so many different options!

Aaaaand yes, we tried three desserts. Yes, they were all delicious.

I’m really mad at myself because I can’t remember the name of this one/it might not be on their menu anymore, but it was equally incredible.

Churros Con Dulce – Do I even have to describe this one?

Tres Leches Cake — I wish you could try this right now.

That’s all the photos I have, so I guess I’ll just have to go back again to take some more ; ) Cannot recommend this place enough! Please go!

    It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s hard to get that “perfect balance” between user friendliness and visual appeal.

    Also, the blog loads very fast for me on Safari. Excellent Blog!

  3. I am young and dirty and I think quite nice to look at. My tits are natural and my nipples are real cams show. Hehe now don’t keep me waiting and let’s go before someone else does and calls me.

  4. F*ckin’ tremendous things here. I am very glad to see your article. Thanks a lot and i am looking forward to contact you. Will you please drop me a e-mail?

  5. Great items from you, man. I’ve be aware your stuff previous to and you’re just too great. I really like what you have received here, certainly like what you are stating and the way wherein you say it. You’re making it entertaining and you still care for to keep it wise. I can’t wait to read far more from you. This is actually a great web site.

  6. The heart of your writing while appearing reasonable originally, did not settle properly with me personally after some time. Somewhere throughout the paragraphs you actually were able to make me a believer unfortunately just for a short while. I however have got a problem with your jumps in assumptions and one might do well to help fill in all those gaps. In the event you actually can accomplish that, I could certainly be amazed.

  7. Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally, it seems as though you relied on the video to make your point. You definitely know what youre talking about, why waste your intelligence on just posting videos to your blog when you could be giving us something enlightening to read?

  8. certainly like your web site but you have to take a look at the spelling on quite a few of your posts. Many of them are rife with spelling issues and I find it very troublesome to tell the reality then again I will definitely come again again.

  9. I’m very happy to read this. This is the kind of manual that needs to be given and not the accidental misinformation that is at the other blogs. Appreciate your sharing this greatest doc.
