FUUD: Jose's Mexican Cafe & Cantina

By Catherine Toth Fox • February 25, 2011 • Food, Musings, The Daily Dish

By about the fifth mile, I knew exactly what I wanted.

An icy margarita. In a pitcher.

So the plan was, after we survived the eight-mile Great Aloha Run on Monday, we were heading to Jose’s Mexican Cafe & Cantina in Kaimuki for margaritas. I mean, lunch.

So here’s what we ate:

    I haven’t been to Jose’s in years, like maybe 20 years. But after seeing that shot of the Macho Nachos, I may have to pay a visit.

    Wow. Those pictures make me hungry. Everything–even the cold chimichanga–looks good. It’s a shame they couldn’t get it right the second time! Even so, this makes me want to go there next time I’m on O’ahu.
