Charo Chicken

Been going to this chain for awhile.  We went to this one, when the one we went to was closed.

The beans and rice as well as the chicken tastes a bit different than El Pollo Loco.  Perhaps this is because the original owner, Moe, is Persian and he probably uses a few of his native ingredients.  They spray the chicken with lemon juice and sprinkle a dash of seasoning on them.

Went here a few times for the all-you-can-eat buffet.  It is a nice bargain.  My favorite items are the grilled beef and chicken from the fajita station.  The grilled pieces of beef are juicy and tasty.

Also, they have sweet tamales, which are really good and a nice sweet dessert to eat with your meal and to clear your palette.

I went to check this famous Filipino chain out.  The food was just so-so.  The spice they sprinkled on the chicken did have a nice taste to it, but the other dishes I ordered were really plain.

This place is near the Tacos Sinaloa.  I went to this pho place right after to hopefully try a few things.  The pho was just OK and I tried a sandwich which was also just OK.

It is located behind a KFC.  Ordered a few dishes, did not taste anything that stood out.

This is a good place for ribs.  The lunch specials are priced really well.  You can wait though at lunch rush.  They even have the huge beef ribs, so you can be like a caveman and knock them out.

The happy hour is good as well and the food they have is tasty.

I like the chicken from this chain.  The 1/2 chicken combos are quite hearty.  I normally get the red potatos and something else for my second side.  Sometimes the falafel, which is tasty.

Went here for my search of a nice Mexican restaurant in the Southbay and did not find anything special.  I tried the shrimp burrito, which tasted a bit plain as if the shrimp was not marinated too well.

The food was OK and tasty.  The issue is that all of the meat substitutes were all deep fried before hand, so I do not see how this can be healthier.  I would rather eat the real thing.  I guess this place would highly benefit those who will not eat meat.

Tucked in a little plaza, it is your typical Chinese buffet.  Nothing real special.
