Eggroll sampler (4 eggrolls $15.50)

Chicken taquitos (normally 4 for $8.50), Cheeseburger spring rolls (normally 6 for $10), plus 2 others.

Man, did I get hosed on this.:(
Sampler is only 4 eggrolls and for $15.50.:eek:

The most expensive eggroll is only $14.
Wtf premium and for less food??? :Mad: 😡
New menu book came out this week.
Prices increased. :(

The overpriced eggroll sampler is now $17 :eek:

10oz ribeye with 2 sides ($33).
I chose side salad and snap peas.

Looks more than 10oz. :eek:

and that's the end of my gift card.
But I'll probably still eat there since there's a few more dishes I would like to try.

Seems like they cheaped out on the snap peas.

Holy shit, that's "breakfast"? It looks like an entire day's worth of calories.

Yep! (Price is from the Omaha location, it's temporarily unavailable at my local)

the regular burrito is 2150 calories. :eek:
Maybe i should start ordering from the SkinnyLicious section?

edit:
While huge, i think getting a Burrito at Chipolte is a better bang for the buck.

That's why i try not to order burgers from anywhere except McD.
And Chicken sandwiches except from Chick Fil-a.

I say grab a crow-bar and go to town on his windshield right now.... what's the worst that could happen?

*(either that or wait till after dark and stuff a large raw potato into the exhaust-pipe!)

Also like 1/3-1/2 the calories lol.

Was it just doused in butter?

I'm with you on the burrito's although I like Moe's a LOT better then Chipotle.

McDogburger's OTOH are freaking disgusting and don't even taste like beef.... if you MUST get a burger there at least go with a Quarter-Pounder for the non-frozen pattie(s).

I haven't gone since Covid started. While I crave some cheesecake, I'll live.

Romano cheese crust: best tasting chicken i've had from this place

then again, all the other chicken i ate it with sauce.
since this plate came with only simple tomato sauce, i ate the chicken as it.

Going to ask for another sauce next time

Uh, I think I ate there once. Huntington Beach, IIRC, around 4-5 years ago. Not impressed. Slow service, not memorable. Suggest whatever you do don't go sit down when it's busy.

See, this is one reason I don't go out to eat a lot. That's almost a day's calories.

Reasonably on topic: I make a German cottage cheese cake. It's pretty low calorie.

Oh, I agree. I skipped dinner that day as that burger was way more than enough. I am a skinny diabetic and this was just too much, but, BACON.......

chicken cobb salad (lunch,$15.50)

1666488077587.jpeg

this salad is HUGE!
i cant imagine what the dinner portion looks like. :eek:

i think it's the best bang for the buck meal in this place.
there are 6 toppings, all segregated.
tomatoes, egg, avocado, bacon, blue cheese crumble, and chicken on top.

it's like having 6 different salads in 1.
(i eat the bacon side last because its my favorite)

edit:
normal cobb salad is $20.
so @$15.50, it's one of the biggest price reductions by %
