Making two entries tonight since they're completely different topics.
The first thing I'm gonna talk about is Del Taco.
So last week I tried Del Taco since I had been eyeing it for some time and after checking out their website one day, I decided to go. Their website made the food look and sound good, so I thought why not. I went there and ordered combo number 15, I think, which was two potato burritos with chili cheese fries. The cashier asked me which sauce I wanted, the red or the green, and I asked her which one tasted better. She said she didn't know, but she personally liked the green. I hesitated and she said that I could try both, one on each burrito, so I agreed to that. I got my food to-go and brought it back to the apartment.
I ate the chili cheese fries first, because fries are best when they are still warm. They were great. They were so great, in fact, that I finished the whole thing pretty quickly, haha. Now onto the burritos. The first burrito I ate was with the red sauce. I could barely taste the sauce. I even peeked inside the burrito and didn't see much of it. I hate it when restaurants and fast food places skimp on condiments/salsa/sauces/etc. I managed to eat it all, though. The second burrito was with the green sauce, and I expected to taste it when I bit into the burrito. But no. I didn't taste any sauce at all, but all I tasted was lettuce. For some reason, this potato burrito had lettuce and tomatos in it. Not that I mind, but it's weird since the first potato burrito didn't. But I mean, it tasted kind of odd with the potato and beans or whatnot, AND NO FREAKIN' SAUCE WHICH MEANS NO FLAVOR, so I couldn't finish it. -.-
But I didn't want to give up on Del Taco. I thought that next time I would go and try their nachos. So today I went, and ordered combo number 12, which was the Macho Nachos with a drink. I decided to eat there today since I was already hungry. The guy even brought the tray with the plate of nachos to me at the table I was standing at and told me, "You enjoy now." I thought that was a little strange... Until I started eating and I realized what he might have meant. The nachos had ground beef, beans, cheese, tomatos, and jalapenos on them. Which doesn't sound that bad, right? But no. It was bad. Everything just tasted bitter and wrong. I don't even know why. I don't know if it's because of the way they make their food, like the ingredients they use, or if it's because I'm used to nachos I've eaten before, like at home or at Taco Bell. But their nachos tasted just so bitter and completely weird. I wanted to give up eating, but I tried to eat as much as I could since I had spent money on it.
So I've learned my lesson. I'm not giving Del Taco anymore chances. I'm never gonna go back there again.
