King Kong Nachos


This week's date took us to Chacho's #1 in San Antonio. This is one of our favorite greasy food hot spots. Chacho's has a great deal of wonderful menu options. Chachos's can probably be described as a cross between a casual restaurant and fast food. You order at a counter and they give you a pager with a number. When they call your number and your pager vibrates, your food is ready to be picked up. This allows you to have high quality tex-mex without restaurant prices. One important thing to mention- they have puffy tacos. The puff taco is a San Antonio classic. If you visit San Antonio and don't have at least 1 puffy taco during your stay, shame on you.

But since it was early in the day, we decided to share a half order of the King Kong Nachos. For a reasonable price ($10.99), we can have a filling meal "fit for a mutant primate" according to Z. The beauty of these nachos is that you don't have to decide what you want on them. They have everything. Real cheese(2 kinds), different kinds of meats (grilled chicken, shredded chicken, picadillo beef, and mesquite grilled beef fajita) , sour cream, guacamole, and a small dish of chile con queso all over a mountain of super crisp tostadas (corn tortilla chips). The nachos were washed down with a really sour frozen margarita (for me) and a Shiner Bock (for Z)

What's the damage? Well, for our nachos and our drinks. The total came out to...


A perfect Saturday afternoon.
