Mastication Monologues on Aug 06, 2013
While my friends Ravi and Carolyn were in town, we were running all about Seoul seeing the sights, but with all of that traveling we managed to work up a serious appetite. Ravi wanted to try this...

A couple weeks ago, I took a work trip to Minneapolis. The temperatures were on the upswing, at a balmy one degree above zero, so I met up with some friends for a night on the town...

Upon closer inspection, there was a paper that came along with the food that in so many words states that if you complain about how spicy the poppers are, you're going to be made fun of by the staff at Chino Latino and your friends. Challenge accepted!

Fun, funky atmosphere. Food ranges from fairly good to poor. I haven't had anything that was outstanding food wise. Good drinks, great blood mary's. Make sure to visit the bathroom, its fun to watch the girls primping on the other side of the mirror while you are washing your hands.

Really cool atmosphere. Great place to go for a cocktail and appetizers. Young, hip, good-looking crowd. The martinis are fabulous. The food is interesting but uneven- some dishes are fantastic and others are just so-so. The safe bet is to order the combo platters and try a bit of everything. Definately worth a stop if you're out `doing the town`.

Good bar setting. Looks posh and offers variety of dishes, including sushi and tacos. Great ambiance and drinks, but the food can be better though. Everyone should do the saki bomb.

Tip in cash, somewhere along the line they became Chino La-cheapo and they take 2% of charged tips from their servers to pay for credit card processing. Pretty bogus if you ask me.
