Man, now I have a craving for queso and guacamole and salsa. But is it strong enough to haul the kids to the TexMex place for lunch? Decisions, decisions...

Shoulda been sausage & jalapeno kolaches. (Not really kolaches, I know, but some donut places call it a kolache).

Clod, I discovered a great trick for taking small, messy eaters into public:
Go to one of those places where you can throw your peanut shells on the ground--do you have a Logan's Roadhouse?

The twinkies and the bacon make no sense. I like Pie's sub idea... burritos or taquitos would also work... otherwise seems like a lot of dip and not too many chips.

Yeah, but... they don't serve queso and guacamole and salsa.

Ah hell. That does it. I'm just going to go to the grocery store and get taquitos, guacamole, and stuff to make queso. (I always have salsa in the house, at least.)

Gawd, I could eat Tex Mex every freakin' day. In fact, having a going-away luncheon for a co-worker, and I brought Pooka's enchilada cassarole.

They stopped those kinds of restaurants around here. The slip and fall injury lawsuits really cut into the profits.

(which is really a shame, because I enjoyed East Side Marios. They had good drinks)

Oh, I loved Mario's... used to go there for lunch all the time (my office was 2 lights away). The food was good anyway... the servers screaming "TAXI!" all the time was annoying...

We're going to a cow-orker's sb party, and I think I'll make salsa chicken served on corncakes. Guess I've thrown my lot in with Arizona rather than Pittsburgh.

I don't work with recipes, but I'm thinking something like this:
Buy a rotisserie chicken, cool and shred meat (mostly dark meat). Run it through with a knife if the shreds are too long.
Mix with one of Rick Bayless's tomatillo salsas. Rest overnight in the fridge to allow flavors to mingle. Before serving, reheat, drain off any liquid and combine chicken with minced red onion, chilies, cilantro. Top with queso fresco and pepitas (if I can find them!)

Make dollar pancakes with cornbread batter (with roasted corn kernels and garlic added).

Serve a bowl of the salsa chicken surrounded by corncakes on a large platter.

I can't stand guacamole. Or most of the stuff on the 'platter'. Now, if it consisted of olives, cheese, salami, pickles, and maybe some chips...you'd have to pry me off it.

They're making a comeback though - Lonestar (at least the one on 202 in DE) and the "Five Guys Burgers and Fries are doing it...

Even in places where you are supposed to throw peanut shells on the floor, I always felt bad about doing so.

haha. We have Texas Roadhouse. yum. But I usually dump the peanut shells on the table. I figure, it's still messy, still fun, but the waiters can just swipe 'em off.
