I'm out on the whole North of the Loop sucks debate. Readers of this blog are well aware of my fave spots about town. I do however own a town home in Addison and walk to work most days to our studios in Addison Circle. Masaryk, the new Modern Mexican Kitchen & Tequila Lounge, recruited our staff and some other locals as guinea pigs for lunch service today... so some snaps:
The Duck Carnitas Tacos look promising. ^ The Fundido. We sampled some tasty Carne Asada; Tacos al Carbon... but the winning dish:
Applewood Smoked Bacon and Chipotle Fajitas. Raves on this one from the table.
^Tostaditas de Ceviche; Huaraches Mercad (Corn Masa Discs, Black Beans, Pulled Pork, Chille Pasilla, Crema, Queso Fresco, Shoots).
The Flan. Three of us don't like flan, after this - two converted. I'll get back over and get some shots of the handsome space and inviting Tequila Bar. A welcome addition to our enclave up North... and no nosebleed.
, it was paid for with Cold Hard Cash, and that's that.
Live in the neighborhood. Excited to see a new place. Can't wait to check out the drinks and food.

I've always been suspicious of flan... the movement and texture just can't be trusted. Any yummy pork selections (other than bacon)?

foodiva- You should stop by tonight (Thursday, June 11) and join the Addison Circle Neighborhood Association at Masaryk. We are having a social event for the residents. Drop by anytime from 7-9pm for free cheese quesadillas, flautas, chips & salsa.
