| - This visit I tried the chili rellenos and a tamale (side option.) I can't recommend either. The rellenos were drowning in cheese and sauce and lacked flavor. The tamale had a sweet sauce, I think pineapple was in there, and it was ok but not a flavor I like. Also, there was so little chicken in the tamale. The salad that came with the rellenos was superb. I would happily eat that again. It was lettuce, sliced dark red tomatoes, avocado, grated cheese, maybe something else - and it all went together beautifully. I don't think there was any dressing and it didn't need any either.
We got beer this time as well. The waiter asked small, medium, or large? I retorted with what's the difference in sizes? He motioned with his hands which was absolutely unhelpful. I don't know if he was trying to be funny or a jerk but neither approach works with me. I opted for medium thinking it would be a pint but actually it was larger. If you're looking for a modest beer to go with a meal, get the small. If you're planning on having a couple anyway, go with the medium. Don't get the large unless you are also looking for a bicep workout.
My companion again got the flautas, and I tried half of one. That tasted great so I'll probably try that dish next time, along with a small beer.
For now, still four stars.
