Yeah i don’t eat there often so it was quite apparent the last couple times that they’ve removed everything with flavor and substituted it for extra rice and beans, while charging more for it. My city has dozens and dozens of Mexican restaurants and food trucks that offer way better taste and portions for way less money.
Look, I’m part Mexican, and I can cook. However there is something about the taste of food I didn’t have to make that just makes it better. It’s the same with a sandwich.
I have been telling this for years. The only thing that comes close when making it yourself is cooking in a campfire. Camping food also has a mystical spice that makes no sense
And their food is mostly rice and beans.

But it’s such delicious (and overpriced) rice & beans.
Their rice recipe is rice, salt, lime, and cilantro. There, now you can make it at home exactly the same way.

The smoke helps but yes the experience is important.
@Jarix@lemmy.world @mean_bean279@lemmy.world And I agree that /someone else/ making the food makes it better
