WHO BRINGS A F*CKING CREDIT CARD TO A GROUP DINNER?!

HI!!!! soooo... i was going super strong last year on my food blog until i went to Japan. Then i got really stressed cuz there were too many things to post and freaked out and quit forever which was way lame since i ate tons of awesome places. sigh sigh. maybe some back blogging. we will see. But! at least for the moment i will try to be good :D

In order to celebrate cumpleanos de Katelyn, she, eugieugi, Carlos & I hit up a favorite intern haunt: el Torito!

I think we all know el Torito, so I won't go in to too many details. We all excitedly ordered the $11.99 3 course "MexiMeal" as it was a substantially better value than the main dishes

apparently the espolon margartini is a fail though, so don't order that

 Of course my fav part of this place is the "bottomless" chips and salsa. LIES!! either they don't expect to have lunch patronage or they just really freaking hated us cuz the service sucked. Please note the immediately empty chip basket to the left. one for four people!? are they serious >: |

Being a Sharon, I couldn't concentrate on the witty mingling cuz i was so focused on this:

full basket of chips in the next booth over

Such a waste! I hate it when people leave tons of food on their table. I was seriously so tempted to jump across the booth and swipe the basket. It was totally untouched and we were so starving. oh!! and you can't really see it here, but they also left a full ice cream there too :'( </3 wish i had gone for it

corn mush!
katelyn: is it an entree?
carlos: no it's hot

it looked bigger in the picture :(

Ok... haha this is el Torito so I'm already sick of describing it. below are the main dishes. mine was kind of gross. floutes? in the picture it looked like it was the entree with the greatest quantity so i went for it.. but it was nasty. let's just say i've had better Hot Pockets. i did enjoy the tortillas for the guys' fajitas tho

even dessert was a little disappointing. i had the "fried ice cream" which was just really fried tasting (in a surprisingly not good way)

fried fail :(

the lunch was amazing cuz i <3<3<3ed the company :) but def not cuz of the cuisine. sigh. it made me miss mike roth and dylan too :( and being an intern. life was so simple back then~~~~
