Very popular down here. The problem with Chuy's is lack of seasoning. Rather than season a dish the way it is supposed to be seasoned, very little seasoning is done so no one dislikes the flavor...because there is very little flavor! Watering it down for the masses, if you will.

Correct. And Chuy's doesn't want to risk serving food that's not bland enough to not offend everyone.

I much prefer authentic Mex over Tex-Mex, too, but sometimes I like the cheese fest.
Next door to you is some good New Mex eats too.

Every August some restaurants and many grocery stores set up large roasters out front and fresh roast the chiles. OMG, Fred, you've never tasted anything like a freshly roasted Hatch chile on a burger or sitting on top of a steak.

Oh yes I have! I've been to ABQ and Santa Fe during roasting season (off season too). You can smell roasting chiles everywhere and a burger with green is about the best burger I've ever had, even if it's only at Blake's Lotaburger :)

Re: Difficult food choices, Tim Hortons style

Tim Hortons Rolls Out Monstrous ‘Buffalo Crunch’ Doughnut

By Hugh Merwin
August 27, 2014 9:15 a.m.
While Burger King moves forward with its bid to buy Tim Hortons for $11.4 billion and its relocation to be closer to the constitutional monarchy up north, the Canadian chain has taken a very deep dive into fast-food mash-up territory with this "Buffalo Crunch" doughnut, now being served exclusively at the New York State Fair through Monday.

It consists of a pull-apart yeast doughnut that's dunked in Buffalo sauce and crusted with crushed-up chips.

It combines a staggeringly high number of junk-food influences (Buffalo sauce, tortilla chips, doughnuts) while still managing to make sense.

The corn-chip strips in the center are decorative, and the doughnut comes in mild and hot varieties — mild is "toned down" with Ranch dressing. It costs $2.

Is this the prototype for the future? Yesterday, Market Watch speculated that the newly merged chains could launch the first mainstream doughnut burgers, where the traditional sesame bun is subbed out for a grilled doughnut. That may be true, but if either chain put a fried chicken cutlet and a melted slice of industrial Jack on this thing here, we're pretty sure it'd sell out even faster.
