A 'Mexi' Situation

Got the Borracho Fish Taco ($21.90), Loaded Chipotle Chicken Nachos ($21.90), and a Frozen Lime Margarita ($16). Pretty pricey, but the food was good. Fish tacos had a mix of crunch from the cabbages, some heat and creaminess from the jalapeno mayo, and sweetness of the mango salsa, all wrapped around a decently-sized portion of crisp white fish. Loaded nachos also came in a huge portion, with generous servings of chicken chunks mixed within. The frozen margarita fell a little bit flat though, felt like it was messily put together plus there the frozen slush had already mostly liquefied back.

On the day they also seemed to be running some kind of member promotion - I didn't quite get it, but there was complimentary churros served plus a 15% discount on the meal. Win! Total came up to about $61 which I thought was pretty worth it for the amount of food and even a margarita.

Been to their sister outlet, Chico Loco at Telok Ayer, many times and was feeling like some Mexican so we decided to pop by and try the outlet at Robertson Quay!

Started off with the Roasted Cauliflower ($9) and can I just say that the cauliflower was so nutty and delicious - truly my fave when it's cooked well like this! The cashew crema and Taji spice also lent it a sourish heat that paired so nicely. Also had the Braised Black Beans ($8) as my friend wanted to try but I can't comment much about it as beans aren't exactly my first choice of fillings at Guzman/Stuff'd. The Crispy Potatoes ($10) were served well-crisped and piping hot, just perfect! For some greens, we chose the Loco Salad with Grilled Chicken ($16 + $5) which was satisfying but I wish they gave more of the veges for this price. We loved the Baja Fish Tacos ($11/pc) - although not the price - with a winning combi of thick and crisp barramundi fillet together with chilli mango salsa and cabbage. Lastly, we got the Chicken Quesadilla ($18) but this was quite lacklustre in terms of flavours and portion. Missed the happy hour but we still got the Prickly Pear Frozen Margarita ($19/glass) and the Watermelon basil Cooler ($9) - pretty overpriced and I was disappointed that the margarita did not come with salt!

Overall, a pretty vibey place for good food, good mood, and good booze, although be prepared to pay a pretty penny! In total, the four of us paid about $140 for the meal.

Popcorn chicken brined in an apple & agave marinade, served with a spicy sweet & sour sauce. Great crunch on the batter and the chicken, while delicious on its own, really shone with the sweet & sour sauce which was reminscent of the Chinese version.
