Ok, I know we probably didn't make it easy either. We like our Nachos with the chips on the side. When you have all the toppings on TOP of the Nachos, then by the time you get down to the bottom, you either don't have enough toppings for what is left of the chips, or the chips are soggy. We ended up asking at each place we went to if we could have our chips on the side. We got a lot of funny looks. So we were looking to see...
1. Chips to topping ratio
2. Enough for two
3. Good tasting toppings
4. Did the cheese stay soft and stretchy till the end
5. Chips stand up to toppings
6. Price
We tried places like...Casa Corona, Bobby Salazar's, Sal's, Chili's, we even went to Denny's!
This is not the full list, but we learned along the way that most places taste the same...not too impressed!
BUT...We do have a winner! (Drum roll please...)
We like Qdoba Mexican Grill in Clovis.
1. They give a GOOD side of chips for the Nachos
2. We both have a good fill and never come out hungry after sharing one!
3. We have tried all different combinations of meat and love them all!
4. They have a cheese sauce and shred cheese that is SO good and stays soft!
5. I love their chips!!!!! The chips have a hint of lime and salt on them. I am good just eating a plate of them alone. (Not to forget the guacamole! SO GOOD)
6. For less than $10 we get the Nachos and a drink. Again, it feeds two perfect!
It is always very clean when we go in and the people working there have been wonderful! There are SAMPLES..yes, I said SAMPLES and everyone is great about suggesting new combos or to recommend one of their favorites...
Anyone up for NACHOS? Come on! Tuesdays! (I Love NACHO Night!!!)
(Qdoba closed this last week, July 2012, so now we are on the hunt for a new NACHO place...suggestions?)
