Truly Made to Order

Recent conversation at our favorite, local Mexican restaurant.


Me: I'd like the Taco Salad, with chicken, please.

Authentic Waiter: You want everything with it?

Me: Um, no guacamole.

Authentic Waiter: Sour cream?

Me: Yes. But could I please get it on the side?

Authentic Waiter (nods): Lettuce?

Me: Yeeesss, I do want lettuce.

haha, i'm the same way with my taco salad. Chicken, no guacomole, no olives, add beans, and please put the sour cream on the side...That's what I call, "have it your way"!

no guac?? what?? thats insane? lol.. it wasn't until I had homemade guacamole that i fell in love with it.. you gotta try it.

Katie said...

Yeah, I'm gonna have to agree with Rachel G. about the guacamole...you're missing out!!

i TOTALLY had to comment on the "no guac" as well. you have not LIVED until you've had good guacamole. my husband didn't like it until i made it for him and now he requests it often.

if you are ever in town for a DG conference, i'll make it for you, okay?

and, yes. it IS funny that you were asked if you'd like any lettuce with your salad.

reminds me of this:

A little clarification...

I do not despise guacamole. In fact, I quite enjoy a good batch. I just didn't want it on my taco salad. The chicken seasoning is delicious without any help from the guac ;).
