got hungry on the road and stopped at Taco Bell
ordered one of their cheapest offerings - soft taco with beef - $1.49
I know the beef was low quality
but as a whole it had a lot of flavor - it was tasty - much more than a MickyDees burger
I was impressed - they're masters of giving their food flavor

I think Taco Bell is passable overall, as far as fast food goes. I went there about once every 2-3 months, at one point, but now we go to Moe's if we're in the mood for cheapish Mexican fast food. The Taco Bell $5 boxes, in particular, I often find to be a pretty good deal.

Do you have Del Taco on the East coast? A couple times a year I go to Del Taco on Tuesdays when they have 3 tacos for $1.29. They are good for the price.

I don't know whether or not the East Coast has it, but there are none near me, in any case. I'll keep that in mind and check them out if any come into the area though, thanks!
Both places change their menu too much for my taste. They promote a cheap new dish, get you hooked and they pull it from the menu.
The Burger King here had tacos for a bit but got rid of them.
always loved coffee - lately have been experimenting
my favorite is Asian white coffee - my favorite brand is Maxim - Korean
white coffee is smooth and strong - brewed differently - it's sold 3 in 1 with a little bit of cream and a little bit of sugar
on Amazon it's more than double the price you can get in Asian markets - I guess Amazon does not have strong connections in Asia
now I mix it with a little bit of Latino instant espresso - Bustelo - and add a little Coffeemate to smooth it out - because now it's very strong
10 years ago I looked down on any instant coffee - not anymore - when I first started using it I was shocked at how good it is

I've never had the infamous Chicken and waffles, you chose Waffles as a bun. I read to have a rare burger it needs to be pasteurized, do you or do you just gamble? You should move to my town and open a restaurant. Is your wife a good cook too ? My beef stew turned out good, but my memory of it I'm sure is idealized.
I don't know if you guys have the Sarku chain near you - but their chicken teriyaki is excellent IMO
for $1.50 more you can get get double meat - which makes it enough for 2 meals - for me anyway - and just about $10 bucks
headed there today - looking forward to it

I have never heard of Sarku. Is it a regional chain? I travel a lot and always assume that I know about most chains but never heard of Sarku.
