Bongo Johnny’s, Palm Springs CA

This sandwich was huge! I guess I didn’t pay attention when it said “two pieces” of fish, lol! Anyway, it tasty pretty good and it certainly was filling. I didn’t like their gourmet fries though. I didn’t realized that they were going to get covered with the hot sauce and gorgonzola, so they came out REALLY limp and unappetizing.

Meh, this panang curry was more yellow than I’m used to. They also added zucchini which wasn’t indicated on the menu description. It was also one of the most watery panang curries I’ve had. Another failure in my book…

The fried chicken tasted ok, but the outside was a little limp for my taste. I like a nice, crispy coating on my fried chicken. The country gravy was also very milky and kinda bland. I liked the creamed spinach though.

Hula Truck, San Francisco CA

This Filipino burrito was really tasty! I loved the flavor of the pork tocino, and everything else added to the flavor party in my mouth. Albeit, this wasn’t the healthiest thing to eat, but it certainly filled me up with goodness during lunchtime.

Ugh, this was kinda gross! All the yogurt flavors tasted super synthetic and weird. I opted for two different flavors (the least offensive ones) and only got a little bit of them. I really need a sugar fix otherwise I would have passed.

Mexican chicken caesar - Bongo Johnny's
Grilled chicken breast, queso fresco, romaine lettuce, pepitas, tomatoes, and housemade tri-color corn chips, tossed in garlic, olive oil, and cilantro dressing. $11.95
Bongo Johnny’s, Palm Springs CA

I enjoyed this. It was one of the few lighter items on their menu, but it didn’t lack in flavor. The chicken was also pretty tender despite my weariness of grilled whole breast because they dry out pretty quickly.
