So... I quit my job. I immediately required a frozen margarita at an outdoor location. I immediately required the ancient, healing properties of guacamole. Dos Caminos, at the corner of West Broadway and Houston (though there are a few locations throughout the city) offered the most convenient oasis from my desert storm of resignation.A few notes about this restaurant. 1. It is not that cheap 2. The man next to me ordered something which looked like a bowl full of garlicky spinach. Sticking out of the green pile was a slim piece of paper marked - "ALLERGIES". If I had not been kamikazing my way through this pink antidote, I would have leaned over and asked him more about his dietary concerns - and his experience with the server. All I can tell you is, it looks like they take an allergy seriously. There are benefits to eating at an institution with $12 margaritas.

Highlights:
-Guacamole texture (soft and smooth)
-Tomatillo salsa ("I want this flavor in my mouth forever", said my Glutenous Correspondent, and I agreed)
-Sharing the taco platter (three tacos, $12, side of rice and beans)
-Outdoor seating
-When a woman, walking past in a dress like a shredded rubber tire, tripped and broke her six inch heel, and put on a sort of cockeyed catwalk performance for all the diners.
-Now that I have quit my job I expect to have more time for GLUTEN FREE BLOGGING.
