Why the hell dont they throw some lean asada meat on that grill and sell steak bowls and burrittos?

and holy shit.. .the next time i went.. now they have steak tacos and bowls..
no burritos..

still not much.. let me tell you what i did.

I got a 3 piece meal.. 2 breast and a wing..

I took one of the breasts and tore pieces off and added it to the bowl.. so... i had double meat plus a breast in there.. plus a breast on the side.

I took the side orders ( rice and beans home) my son loves the beans.. hes only 9 months and its cool to watch him as i feed him one bean at a time.

OH BABY!

I drove by EPL today and I saw the damn banner.

Im definetley going by one of these days, If its as good as their chicken its

worth trying.

Surprisingly they give you a lot of chicken if you get the 2piece breast meal. I actually pulled it apart from any bone and weighed it and it was almost 10oz and thats cooked, so thats a good 12+oz of chicken in a 2piece breast. Not a bad price at all either.

We dont have El Pollo Loco in Australia but since my wife is from Philippines, they have El Pollo Loco there. We absolutely love how they cook the chicken and with salad and salsa. We always go to El Pollo Loco 1-2 times a week.
Next time we go there, will take some photo's.
I wonder if they have steak now. But the food serving in Philippines is incredibly small portion.

Hmm.. maybe this needs to be part of my pre-contest diet.. ha ha. Probably not.. my prep coach is a fucking hardass. I hate him...

 

[marilyn]

Its good to have a prep coach that keeps you from wandering off task.. Even though hes not the one in the trunks on stage he sees his work up there....

I have tried to offer convinence to competitors on contest diets and myself too...

I want things to go smooth and easy and less stress.. but kind of no way out of cooking up your food.. Though El Pollo Loco breast well done are pretty damn dry and not bad for the price too

Marilyn.. i know your a lifetime dieter.. my advise is.... dont shy away from some good lean red meat from time to time.. Im hungry too.. i think i will have some filet kabobs with basmati rice..

We are hooked on this middle eastern place that just opened nearby.. Shish kebab, filet kabob flattened out and the chicken breast kebob is great.

And their rice is basmati rice.. and nice and dry.. so damn good!
