Highlights of the meal:
This was our first experience dining at El Chorro. Little did we know that it was destined to become one of our favorite local restaurants.
First off, they had us with the sticky buns. We weren't familiar with these locally famous treats, and let me just say...our eyes were rolling back in our heads with glee. Major Yumminess and an unexpected surprise!
