Besito

Here is another photo I took but didn't find a spot to post.   Besito is a stylish, upscale, Mexican restaurant in West Hartford Center. This photo was taken on a December morning, before the lunch rush began.

Besito shows artworks on its walls.  You can see part of the exhibition "The Wild Horses of Sable Island," photoworks by Roberto Dutesco.

    Oh boy, Lois Anne would love that horse picture...being in Ocala, our house is full of horse pictures!

    Besito es muy bonita. Nice photo, too.

    No, you silly character. That's not my picture on Ocala DP. Heh, heh. In fact, the guy walked by me and gave me a very frightening look. I held tight to my camera and made ready to run!

    Just glad he kept walking 'cause being an antique I couldn't run fast or far!

    Love the high ceilings and light fixtures. That horse portrait must be huge.

    Looks very elegant and chic. I think it must be a bit pricey:)

    I, too, think that the horse painting/poster is quite stunning. Thanks for the link, too.

    I should mention that this is a huge photograph, not a painting.

    WEll I like the looks of this place. Glad I put my glasses on. I thought the painting was ummm........naked people! Yikes, where is MY mind! On closer look I think the horses are a stunning piece of artwork for this place.

    Besito has been in West Hartford Center about two years. I have eaten there two or three times, including a few days before I took the picture. The food is good. (It is rated 1 out of 89 West Hartford restaurants on Trip Advisor, but it doesn't have a lot of reviews.) I didn't like the photos I took while dining, so I went back to try again. This is the result.

    Mexican usually isn't my favorite but by the looks of that restaurant, I'd give it a try!
    Cheers!

    Since I now have a "reputation" to uphold. Go back to my Paris blog a few days and read about the wonderful ice cream! HA

    Awww.. I believe a besito is a small kiss. That's a nice name for a restaurant. And it looks like a good place too!

    I am glad you posted this photo, it happens that they slip away pushed back by more recent ones. Now and then we have to give these images a chance!
