Man vs Food featured restaurant! How dumb of me to think that I could come here and eat the same amount of food as Adam Richman?!

I was visiting Arizona and decided to do a search on the restaurants that were featured in Man Vs. Food or those who had a James Beard Award Nominee or Winner. Nice comparison, huh?!
I got to Los Reyes De La Torta at 1:30 on a Saturday afternoon, and this place was PACKED!!! I was quickly seated by two young and bubbly waitresses. Did I mention that this place is always packed?! I found out why!
I started my meal by ordering the Aguas cremosas - $4.50. I ordered the Canteloupe (choices of strawberry, mango, banana, papaya, or canteloupe). The fresh fruit was mixed with carnation and sweet cream. It tasted like a canteloupe shake with delicious condensed milk! INSANE!!!! Grade: A+

For my lunch meal, I ordered the Del Rey - $9.50. It was ham, melted cheese, pork sirloin, breaded beef, with refried beans, hot dog meat & chorizo omelet, tomato, onion, avocado,& chipotle sauce. Served with chopped onion & cilantro with garnished salad. HOLYSHAMADIGIGGIDY!!!! This sandwich was HUGE, delicious, and insane! I literally ate only 1/4 of this sandwich. My Yelp friends know how much I can eat, bit sadly will I admit.....
FOOD WON! :(
