Chavez Market - Chicken Nachos on a Sunny Day

Media

Be kind folks, this is my first review. I promise as time goes on the video quality will get better. So this week I decided to take up my friend Roselidia on her suggestion and try Chavez Market. I have eaten their food before but as company lunch as it was delivered as separate items and you had to assemble a taco or whatever yourself.

First off the value is very good, you get an ample serving for the price and could be eaten as solo or shared with up to four. The appearance in a togo container is not as good as on a plate but that was today's option as sitting in a taqueria / market was not going to cut it on such a nice day. Even so I still gave these nachos an average score, I could have dressed them up more at the salsa bar. Ambiance just below average given the context that I was in a taqueria behind the train tracks in Redwood City. Taste just seemed to get better as I explored the flavor of the chicken and the quality crunch of the chips. These chips will set the bar fairly high for nachos to come. My only let down was the beans being refried compared to whole black. Even so, they bucked conventional wisdom and held up till the end. If you have also experienced these nachos I urge you to submit your opinion or share in the comments below.

El Grullense #1 -- Damn Good Stoner Nachos

Media

The Nacho Hunter heads to Redwood city for his weekly fix. When hunger hits and nothing but nachos will do, head to this "joint".... ha ha ha ha; for some seriously cheesy nacho goodness. Let it be known, that contrary to the title The Nacho Hunter was not under the influence for this review.... but who knows what the future holds. Value was spot on, a bit better than most joints in the area for comparable offerings. That said, unfortunately the appearance was not so hot, but then again I did get the take out version. I have never done a platted version there so I guess there will be a return trip some time in the future. The ambiance of my Infinity G37 is nice but to eat nachos and record a video.... not so much. Even if you sit at the counter, you are street side and people looking at you eat from inside..... meh Taste is what I expected, these were stoner nachos so its about extra cheese, messy eating, and quantity of meat. Everything was very good from the taste perspective. Service is lacking, they are a taqueria and its about getting it out fast and get the money. If you want to see The Nacho Hunter eat stoned nachos actually stoned then make comments or send emails.
