Bruja at Baja!
Catching up: Tuesday Monz visited Franksville and had an olive dog and kraut dog (not bad, but he liked the condiments about as much as he likes Condi Rice, which isn't much...). This reminds us that Jewel is now carrying Hebrew National hot dogs, the winner of a taste-off contest and a staff recommendation here at myl (right up there with Vienna Beef, which was not part of the taste-off). Yesterday Monz went to Wendy's for an ultimate chicken grill, which wasn't that good but didn't make him want to go out and torture Mr. Wendy either. Today Monz was going to Jeff's for a turkey bacon club, a reliable treat. And Saturday (yes, we know we're backed-up!) the editors went to the local Baja Fresh, curious as to what they would find. Verdict: a schizy place -- doesn't know if it wants to be fast food Mexican or Chili's. We liked the free tortilla chips and guacamole and thought the fish taco was excellente! We thought the chicken and beef tacos were pretty good, but-for the way-too-much and way-too-strong onyuns. And the combination of the female corporate represetative walking around the not-quite-nice-enough-for-a-real-resturant tables asking survey questions with the odd choice of goth-tinged alternative rock music made us feel like we weren't in Tijuanana anymore. (Oh yeah, and they have beer!)
