Red onion, jalapeno, taco seasoned chicken. Probably about a quarter pound of chicken.

Seasoned chicken on pizza is underrated.

Cost per person, $3.50

    developed by one guy in the 80s and released in 1992.

    Well, “>blank< that guy and the horse he rode in on.”

    Even the local cantina seems to mix that up, which is embarrassing, altho I guess if they’re stuck sourcing from Sysco or whatnot then they have limited choice.

      I have more rants against Sysco every month. They are destroying restaurants by causing them all to have the same menu.

      The jalapeno guy had good intentions. But the market messed everything up.

        Funnily enough, there’s a Saturday farmer’s market that meets right next to the cantina, with several local farms being represented. I don’t know how much scale they could really handle in terms of various veggies for a restaurant, but at least they could help them replace that mediocre Sysco cilantro and maybe a couple other herbs.

        Unfortunately, the cantina owner seems pretty incurious about that and other significant details of serving good food, which is why I don’t expect them to last. The previous cantina runner in the square was awesome with foodie details, but Covid basically shut him down, sadly.

        Thanks a lot, Winnie the Xi.

          It’s not the sad herbs. Sysco’s problem is the same frozen heat and serve goods at every restaurant. The same burger patties, buns, cheese, salad dressing, jalapeno poppers, potato bites, breaded chicken, etc.
