COYOTE FLACO

 While in Williamstown visiting the Clark, we stopped for supper at Coyote Flaco, The Skinny Coyote.

Although it is a Mexican Restaurant, the sign says they serve food from Spain, so I was moderately hopeful.
"food from Spain" on a restaurant sign is very different than "Spanish food." which generally means food from South America.
It is hard to find authentic food from Spain. We found some in St. Petersburg, Florida at a place that made an assortment of tapas that were what one might find on a menu in Spain.
Well, The Skinny Coyote was 95% Mexican, but they did have a chorizo special that featured the chorizo one might find in Spain. I had it and it was very good.
My Mexican taste was elote, the corn on the cob one finds offered by Mexican street vendors. It was good, but only one ear with a little salad. Still, for $6, not bad.
I liked the restaurant itself. The music was low. The decorations were interesting. The service was excellent. Our table was in the main room and too close to another table. Next time I'll ask for a table for two by the fireplace in the other room.
For dessert we shared a nice portion of flan.
Tons of choices for margaritas. The NA beer was Corona; they were out of Buckler.
We got there as they were opening. No reservations are accepted, but it was good timing to get a table. No wifi available.
