I hit Pollo Tropical for lunch today.  I think it is the first that one opened up in this area.  They are working on another one up in Cumming, but I digress.

First thought - they ripped down some excellent woods to build that, and some other really unmemorable restaurants like Chipotle along with it.  I'd rather have the woods back.  Chipotle blows goats.

Second thought - you'd think the place was the second coming, since you just couldn't get a place to park there the last several weeks.  That seemed to ease back recently.

Third thought - my review:  The chicken was actually pretty good.  The ribs were not, but the chicken made up for it.  I had a salad and corn souffle as sides, and the corn dish was not bad.  The salad was meh, but anyway.  There was also a roll, straight out of a bag from the grocery store, that I ditched after one bite.

Summary:  wasn't horrible, and the service was very good.  The staff was 10/10 as far as trying to make the place work,

Plus:  Really good chicken.

Minus:  Pepsi.  I mean seriously - you are a restaurant in the Atlanta area, and you serve Pepsi?!?  Atlanta is where Coca Cola was born and raised.  Serving Pepsi here is, at best, bad manners.  Also, the ribs were embarrassingly bad.

Ultimate impression:  Not worth losing the wooded area for.

Tuesday Evening Quotes

“Write hard and clear about what hurts.”

--Ernest Hemingway

“In your life, you meet people. Some you never think about again. Some, you wonder what happened to them. There are some that you wonder if they ever think about you. And then there are some you wish you never had to think about again. But you do.”

--C.S. Lewis

No doubt...

So I have this huge yard, and we've been getting a ton of rain all year.  And something is tracking through the South side of it, leaving conspicuous marks in the lawn, and I want to know what it is.  So I bought a game tracker camera today, set it up this evening, and if anything interesting shows up, I'll probably post pics.  If it ends up being a hobo on a pogo stick, maybe not so much.  We shall see...

Note to any New Mexican peeps in the ATL

Chuy's in the North Perimeter is now selling this season's Hatch green chili, during their "Green Chili Fest."  Per pound prices: fresh for $2.50, roasted for $3.50, roasted, chopped and cleaned for $4.50.  I am totally filling my freezer with the roasted, chopped and cleaned.

I've had their Hatch, and it is the real deal.  They have their own farms down there, or some such.
