$10 Deal: Guatemalan ‘surf and turf’ at Alicia Restaurante
The costilla de res con camarón is a platter meant to be shared. It comes with rib steaks, grilled shrimp and sides: spiced rice, black beans, iceberg lettuce with lime and tomato and macaroni salad. The plate also comes with warm tortillas and fresh salsa roja. (Joshua Carlucci/Special to The Daily Memphian)
The rib steak, with its charred edges and tender middle, balances beautifully with plump shrimp just kissed by the grill.
