Return to El Puerto, Tampa FL


On our last trip to Tampa we had to take Redneckhunter's brother to our find from our last trip -- El Puerto in Ybor City.  Since he was stuck in traffic, we ordered the biggest entree we could find for him -- the Parillada Argentina, Argentinean sausage, short-rib, skirt steak, chicken breast, pork chop, sweet bread, and morcilla served with two sides (obviously he had more than enough to take home).

Since we didn't want to steal from his sweet bread and morcilla (blood sausage), Redneckhunter and I ordered them as appetizers to share along with ceviche. 

The sweetbreads were big and meaty and the blood sausage was sinfully rich. I could feel arteries hardening...  Luckily the ceviche was vinegary and refreshing with those wonderful big corn kernels from Peru.
