Rosa Mexicano - Jenn's Perspective
Uli & Jenn enjoying dinner at Rosa Mexicano in DC
October 9, 2009
It was strange to return to campus for my senior year of college. I was without my darling love, whom I had spent a majority of my time with only two semesters before. The German House held so many precious memories, but felt a bit strange in her absence at first. Luckily, the new teaching assistant, who came from the same University in Mainz, was (and still is) very cool. We quickly became friends, bonding over a similar taste in music and both of our newly long-distance relationships. In October, he and I were very fortunate to have both of our loves come visit us! Christian told me that his girlfriend, the charming Angelina, loved Mexican food so I looked up a nice restaurant in DC and made reservations for the 4 of us to escape the dining hall!
Rosa Mexicano is an upscale, modern restaurant located across the street from the Gallery Place- Chinatown station on the Red Line (represent!!). The design and decorations were quite dazzling and the service was spectacular! As an appetizer, we were served deliciously fresh guacamole that was prepared right in front of us. The food was fresh and the plating on point. Only the best for my schatz. It was wonderful to be in the company of my darling as well as Christian and Angelina. They are such a cute couple and I am more than happy to have them as friends when I move to Mainz. Overall, it was a splendid night thanks to the blissful blend of amazing atmosphere, exquisite eats, and kick-ass company.
