Mid-Week Dinner Out: Aqui Cal-Mex, Campbell Downtown

I live for mid-week dinners with friends. Meeting-up for a gab, and sometimes we even go running. Tonight, we went to one of our usual rotations, Aqui Cal-Mex in downtown Campbell. 
Aqui's menu always pleases the palate. Many of the ingredients are organic with an emphasis on providing real, natural foods with an innovative twist. The dishes are familiar, such as wraps and salads, but the flavors are unique to the restaurant. Most dishes borrow flavors from around the world, from the Southwest to California, from Asia to Latin America. Pictured above is BJ's BBQ salmon wrap with jasmine rice and jicama.  Yes, jicama!  Where else can you get this combo? 

The salad contains fresh mango, leafy greens and walnuts. 
My plate was also something special. There was salmon, organic tofu with adobo sauce, papaya, greens, and hidden underneath is polenta!
