We have a fantastic Mexican resturant here in town. We go there a lot because we don't have much to choose from really. It's inexpensive and has the good mexican food that has the white cheese sauce instead of the yellow cheese and it's fantastic. We usually spend about 18 bucks for the boys and I to eat there.
The problem is that we eat there a ton. I always order the same steak fajita nachos and they are so freakin good! I'm okay with that! I could eat it every single week no problem! It would make me a happy girl!
Amber, Brandy and I were going out to dinner a couple nights ago. The question came up: "Where should we go?" We had to choose either the Mexican restaurant, fast food (gag), Cracker Barrel (boring) and a couple other more expensive places. Amber said "I don't want to have Mexican tonight lets go somewhere else." So I agree to go to Miller's, they have great burgers and fries and steaks and seafood and stuff; good enough, just more pricey.
We go in and get a table and browse through the menu for a while all trying to figure out what to have. I ordered a burger, Brandy ordered a burger, the kids all got grilled cheese or pasta. Then out comes the food and we hear the usual "who had the burger, the pasta, the chicken strips" and then I heard those words that set me on fire! "Who had the chicken quesadilla?"
ARE YOU FREAKIN KIDDING ME? The person keeping me from my steak fajita nachos because "I don't want Mexican tonight" ordered Mexican food from the damn steak house! Seriously? She could have had a GOOD quesadilla from **El Jimmy's!! I picked at my burger and was not impressed but we had a nice dinner overall too bad the food and the atmosphere did not top the Mexican restaurant AND it cost much more!
Amber will not pick the restaurant again! I will and I pick El Jimmy's!
**The name has been changed because we think it's funnier!

Ok El Jimmy's IS great but we eat there all the time.Now normally I wouldn't complain but I think on the day I decide to quit smoking I should spend my extra money I am not spending on cigarettes ON FOOD.LOL
How ya like them apples?
OH GOOD cause I wanted El Jimmeys too! We should have taken her food! Then we could have all been happy.
El Jimmy's!! What a GREAT name! But I bet Taco Bell is cheaper. :)
First of all Amber aka Sgt Suds Wife UP THERE^^^ You suck, just so you know. Cause if I had heard you order that I so would have cancelled my order AND YOURS and we would have headed over to the waiter who knows us and always fixes my cheese problem and had a merry old time and you would have gotten your prescious DR PEPPER that MIllers does.not.have! SO there!
Spending extra money on crappy food is like paying two bucks for a dollar menu item....stupid!!
DUH, that's why I'm the smart friend...remember??
Brandy we will out vote her from now on. You know I love El Jimmy but I thought you wouldn't want it again since we do eat there so much. Ambers vote doesnt count since she clearly isn't thinking straight these days.
Roger thanks for the compliment on the name El Jimador just sounds weird to me I don't love it. And I have a habit of renaming things/people to suit my taste. Taco Bell is no comparison to El Jimmys but it is right across the street. And its really not much cheaper. AND this Taco Bell is the only one we've ever been to anywhere in the States that doesn't have a military discount! How crazy is that? Five minutes outside the main gate of an Army base but Taco Bell in the middle of nowhere Michigan has a military discount. The nerve!
HEHE, yeah thats like going to a steak house and ordering chicken...steak houses usually have reallly good, well STEAK!
LMAO Who DOES that? Orders mexican food from a steak house. Reminds me of DQ who wants to have a say where we eat, but ALWAYS orders chicken fingers. Why on earth should I pay Red Lobster prices for McD's food? I still love ya though AA!
