When you write and post a lot of photos about food and restaurants, your People expect you to go to the latest hotspots and report back. Cantina Imperfecto was on our list after hearing rave reviews from friends. So, my little family marched dutifully into the new Myrtle Beach hotspot on Monday.
(BTW: The name of this restaurant does not, at all, reflect the vibe, the food, or the cocktails.)
The interior is out-of-this-Lowcountry-world. It’s got a high-end, ultra modern Miami vibe with beautiful lighting fixtures, gold flatware, pretty people, pretty drinks, pretty food.
An instagram photographer must be involved in the food presentation because it is all so pretty. (And fun to photograph.)
Dinner had an easy cadence to it – not too rushed, but once we ordered, didn’t feel like we had to wait for long.
Our kids ordered carne asada tacos and to my absolute shock, those picky little eaters loved them.
I had the tampiqueña, which is a grilled skirt steak over poblano peppers, onions, cherry tomatoes. Mexican rice, guacamole, cheese enchilada on ranchero, sauce served with tortillas. Yum.
If you’re 14 and play basketball daily for 2+ hours daily, you never have to second-guess dessert. If you don’t fit into that calories-don’t-count category, dessert is only something to order if it is 1000% worth it. Order the churros piled high with scoops of ice cream and whipped cream. It’s dessert perfection.
