Somehow I figured out how to stretch my birthday into five birthday
meals and this was the fifth and final one. This time I went out with the
godfather and his son Matt and grandson Cole. We met at about 11:30 AM and when
we entered we were seated immediately and they told them that we were
celebrating my birthday. After we were seated they brought chips and salsa and
we got an extra set to make it easier. Also we had our drinks orders taken I
ordered a Pepsi and I’m not sure what everyone else got. Then we had time to
check out the menu and catch up and also eat the chips and salsa.
This was
identical to what you get at the Palomino restaurants which I guess they are
somehow related to coyotes. I thought the salsa was pretty decent, but I didn’t
think the chips were all that great. I narrowed my choice down to a few choices
and when our waitress eventually returned I ordered the chicken chimichanga
with guacamole because I’ve been on a guacamole kick recently. The godfather
ordered the lobster mac & cheese and Matt ordered the chicken tacos with
corn tortillas which the waitress recommended. The lobster mac & cheese and
chicken tacos were two of our waitress’s favorite items.
And Cole got the
chicken strips from the kids menu. After we had a while to talk some more our
food arrived.
The godfather seemed to very much enjoy his lobster mac and
cheese, but didn’t want his jalapeno cornbread so Matt and I both tried some of
it and neither of us liked it very much.
It also seemed like Matt enjoyed his tacos.
I really didn’t know if a chimichanga here would be any good, but I was
pleasantly surprised and I was very happy with it. Everything about it was good;
the tortilla, the filling with chicken, cheese, green chilies and onions and
the green chili on top. The rice on the side was okay and I really liked the
black beans.
Just as we were finishing up some of the staff with my dessert
came out singing happy birthday. They also asked Matt about ice cream for Cole
which comes with the kids meals. My dessert was a slice of ice cream cake. This
was kind of like a Dairy Queen cake but definitely better and Cole got a little
ice cream sundae.
Cole and I enjoyed our
desserts and that was that. I had another successful birthday lunch at Coyotes.
After we chatted for a bit longer we were off and I still had part of a
chimichanga for later.
