Mamajuana Rum

A new thing we are getting used to here in New York is getting paid on non-Fridays. I get paid the 15th and the 31st. So to celebrate a pay day (my first official non-temping paycheck), we went out to eat last night. I had read an article in the New York Times about a little Dominican place off Dyckman Street and we decided to check it out. It's called Mamajuana Cafe. Mamajuana (from the website) is apparently a mixture of rum, herbs, honey, and spices and is supposed to have been some concoction that produces miracles. What kind of miracles I'm not sure, but their Mamajuana Mojito was delicious! We didn't get an actual meal but got about three tapas (appetizers) which were all very yummy. Here's some photos from their website:
