REVIEW: Chacho's & Chalucci's

What is it runners do before the big marathon?  Carb up?  This is MY version of going on the big road trip:  Tex-Mex it up.

Heading out tomorrow by auto to Flagstaff, Arizona to see my brother @TMarkM walk across the stage on Friday to get his PHD.  I need all the energy I can find for the long trip.  2400 miles round trip.

Stopped by Chacho's for my Tex-Mex it up.

Snack size Picadillo Nachos were so good.  I usually get a larger size but wanted some papas that come with my main dish.

Had the Carne Guisada plate and it was just so so.  Flavor was a little off tonight.  The papas on this plate were delicious but did not make up for the funky flavor of the Carne G.  Tortillas were nice and stove hot.

Every time I eat @ Chacho's I get so full.  Tonight it was without the obligatory frozen margarita since this was take out.

This location on Nacogdoches Road has apparently won the taco wars because Taco Cabana across the street has been shuttered.

2.9 Stars out of 5

PS:  Always loved the double drive-up order taking thing that turns into four lanes for the pick-up.  This place must be super da busy during lunch.

PPS:  Bossanova is always hanging about and ready for some food to fall to floor.

Note to self:  buy some long johns.  Flagstaff had a blizzard today.
