I am currently on a journey to discover new Hispanic and Mexican restaurants in the Stateline area of Wisconsin. My most recent stop was at La Guacamaya Mexican Restaurant. From the moment I walked in, the staff was extremely friendly and nice. My waiter, in particular, was very attentive to my needs while dining. This made for a great dining experience.One of the highlights of my visit to La Guacamaya was the salsa they had. It was super flavorful and mild, making it the perfect accompaniment to my meal. I ordered a steak burrito and a chicken taco, both of which were very filling and packed full of taste and flavor. The steak was cooked to perfection, and the chicken was juicy and flavorful.In addition to the delicious food, I also asked for a super hot salsa for my burrito. The hot salsa added a nice kick to the burrito and made it even more enjoyable to eat. I always appreciate when a restaurant offers a variety of salsas so that customers can customize their meal to their preferences.After eating, I had a great conversation with the owner and his wife. They were passionate about Mexican cuisine, and they shared their story with me. It was clear that they put a lot of care and love into the food they served, and it showed in the quality of the dishes. It was great to learn more about the restaurant and the people behind it.Overall, my visit to La Guacamaya Mexican Restaurant was a great experience. The food was delicious, the staff was friendly, and the conversation with the owner and his wife was enlightening. I will be continuing my journey on exploring our Stateline area for new Hispanic and Mexican restaurants, and I can't wait to see what other great finds I will discover.

I recently had the pleasure of visiting El Neno Tacos & Tortas in Beloit, Wisconsin for lunch. Located at 946 Wisconsin Ave, this Mexican restaurant did not disappoint. I ordered the enchiladas, and they were absolutely delicious. The flavors were spot-on and the dish was cooked to perfection. The enchilada was filled with a delicious blend of meats, cheeses, and spices, making for a truly satisfying and flavorful meal.But the real star of the show was the super hot red salsa. It was definitely not for the faint of heart, as it packed a real punch of heat. But even with the intense level of spiciness, the flavor was amazing. I found myself going back for more, despite the heat.Overall, my experience at El Neno Tacos & Tortas was fantastic. I left feeling satisfied and stuffed, and I can't wait to go back again. I'm also excited to explore other Mexican and Hispanic restaurants in the Stateline community, and I highly recommend El Neno Tacos & Tortas to anyone looking for authentic and delicious Mexican cuisine.

Fika, Fika, Fika. One thing that I love about getting to know my new community of the Stateline is learning new things. Fika is a Swedish word that translates as, “taking a break for coffee, having a bite to eat, and relaxing with others. Fika Salon is in the heart of Rockton. I had the honor of meeting with Lisa and getting the grand tour of her beautiful shop.What stood out to me right away was the art outside of the door. Two white wings. Greeting you, but also setting the atmosphere for the relaxing feel of the salon. Fika Salon really was breathtaking. Relaxing area with a couch and coffee table to kick back. Fika Salon also sells coffee to take home. Which was cool. There are two chandeliers that sparkle and light up the whole place. Also, there are hair products for purchase. This good brand is called Aquage. Not having long flowing hair anymore, I am kind of out of the product game. After looking it up, Aquage had some great reviews. Now that I’m growing out my hair, I can’t wait to give it a try. After getting the tour of the salon, Lisa, the owner, told me about her journey. Lisa is a family person for sure. Nothing better than a big family. She has been a hair stylist for twenty-one years. Which is amazing. Talk about experience in the trade. A professional that anyone could trust. She has been the owner of Fika Salon for about 3 years now. The shop has four other stylists. One with nineteen years of experience herself. Lisa did grow up in the Stateline community. One of her favorite things about the area is the Hononegah Forest Preserve. Personally, I have never been but now I want to check it out. I haven't been camping in forever. Also, Lisa loves the small-town community of Rockton. The people and events really make the town feel larger than life. With having a large family, schooling is important for Lisa. She held the schools in the area to high regard. Which is great to hear about because of my growing little one.Fika Salon is the place to be. Growing out my hair just got that much more exciting. I am looking forward to using Fika Salon’s services in the future. I could get a facial wax beforehand if I really wanted, but that really isn’t my thing. Waiting for the hair growth process it is. I would highly recommend anyone, and everyone to stop by Fika Salon and get to know what Fika is all about. Relaxing and being with people who don’t only cut hair, they're family. The great conversations, a place where you can be yourself and really take in the moment.-Until next time, Oscar signing off
