El Pollo Loco. Love that place. Always good chicken with sides and I get plenty of the avocado salsa.
I literally went to el pollo loco for 16 years every FUCKING DAY. A common time was after work. I would go on days off and read a book. I would always order a meal and eat and then partake of the free refill drinks. I started bringing newspapers in and magazines. I would eat in once and go to drive thru later on. I would be embarrassed to go twice as eat in . I went in some eventually 2 times a day as eat in patron. The employees would bet on my order. I was the vegas style high roller. I feel I have been in all stores in my area.
Then I would go at 10 am and be back for a late dinner. I know of a Hispanic guy who cooksd chicken there for 15 years- that all he ever did.
I missed 2 weeks when I was without a job and very few days when I was too sick. Easily made up the missed days by double days.
I joined Kaisers weight loss program and assumed I would have to stop. I started to eat the 2 piece meal and pay extra for 2 breast pieces, double coleslaw, corn tortillas.
I never stopped just modified from dark to light meat. I lost from 350 lbs to 200 lbs. low fat diet/ high complex carbohydrate w gym visits.
I used to love those days
That watery avocado sauce while free at the bar is powder mixed with oil. I saw a guy pouring some on each bite of his burrito. at the end he had a small water glass half full and wondered if he was going to use it. The mother f--er drank it. I was on a low fat diet and he was like pushing 300 lbs.
never found out if they use corn oil making the sauce. I think they use corn oil in the beans- some they soak and cook and they used to use canned beans also as I saw the cans out back.
I was the weight loss jarryd of el pollo loco b 4 he was well known. I had lost my weight as he was starting his weight loss.
