It seems that when Santa Fe is deprived of our constructive reviews, their cheesologist starts phoning it in. Our three rounds of Cheese arrived in a type 3 bowl with the usual mismatched array of chips.
The dip itself was Spicy, on the thin side, a good temperature and with a skin so thick I had to break through it with an icepick. The distinguishing feature this week was the chips. They conformed to The Chip-Barrel Theory remarkably well, with some fresh and crunchy and some chewier than week old bacon.
Look at that thing. That's a chip so stale it was impossible to chew. I'm so disgusted by the sight I'd put it behind a cut if anybody actually read this.
Next up came the tacos. Aside from their usual quirk of serving food before the drinks, the tacos deserve special mention today...because they weren't really tacos. There was a tiny spoonful of something possibly meat in the bottom, and then half a lettuce leaf on top of that.
That's not a trick of perspective, my thumb really is bigger than the filling in the taco. I know they're only two dollars, but I can get at least two empty taco shells to the dollar from Coles next door.
I hope their taco chef is crying himself to sleep right now.
Getting back on topic:
Consistency: Slightly thin
Spiciness: Very nice
Appearance: Average, and type two bowl
Temperature: Quite good
Flavour: Decent
Chips: I can't think of an analogy to describe how stale some were. I mean, I eat Biltong and even that isn't in the same class of chewiness as this.
Chip-to-dip-balance: Too few chips due to thin dip.
