La​ ​Mesa
I​ ​really​ ​enjoy​ ​going​ ​out​ ​to​ ​eat,​ ​especially​ ​on​ ​weekends.​ ​My​ ​mom​ ​always​ ​cooks​ ​at​ ​home
so​ ​we​ ​usually​ ​go​ ​out​ ​to​ ​eat​ ​at​ ​least​ ​once​ ​a​ ​week.​ ​I​ ​love​ ​going​ ​out​ ​to​ ​eat​ ​at​ ​Kurry​ ​Xpress
because​ ​they​ ​serve​ ​pretty​ ​decent​ ​meals.​ ​Their​ ​paneer​ ​tikka​ ​masala​ ​is​ ​really​ ​good,​ ​along​ ​with
the​ ​items​ ​on​ ​their​ ​ ​Indo​ ​-​ ​Chinese​ ​menu.​ ​Taco​ ​Bell​ ​is​ ​also​ ​a​ ​good​ ​place​ ​to​ ​eat​ ​for​ ​cheap​ ​but
delicious​ ​Mexican​ ​food.​ ​Their​ ​burritos​ ​and​ ​tacos​ ​are​ ​really​ ​yummy!​ ​Although​ ​I​ ​enjoy​ ​the​ ​places,
La​ ​Mesa​ ​is​ ​the​ ​best!​ ​They​ ​serve​ ​real​ ​authentic​ ​Mexican​ ​food.​ ​La​ ​Mesa​ ​is​ ​my​ ​favorite​ ​place​ ​to
eat​ ​because​ ​of​ ​the​ ​delicious​ ​Mexican​ ​food,​ ​usually​ ​good​ ​customer​ ​service,​ ​and​ ​the​ ​good​ ​deals!
The​ ​first​ ​reason​ ​I​ ​love​ ​eating​ ​at​ ​La​ ​Mesa​ ​is​ ​because​ ​of​ ​their​ ​delicious​ ​food!​ ​Their​ ​chips
and​ ​salsa​ ​or​ ​queso​ ​are​ ​good​ ​for​ ​appetizers.​ ​Sure,​ ​it​ ​takes​ ​a​ ​while​ ​for​ ​you​ ​to​ ​get​ ​your​ ​food,​ ​but
it's​ ​worth​ ​the​ ​wait.​ ​I​ ​really​ ​like​ ​their​ ​enchiladas​ ​filled​ ​with​ ​beans,​ ​rice,​ ​and​ ​cheese.​ ​The​ ​spicy,​ ​red
sauce​ ​that​ ​drips​ ​for​ ​the​ ​tortilla​ ​finishes​ ​the​ ​dish​ ​off.​ ​For​ ​a​ ​drink,​ ​my​ ​parents​ ​usually​ ​order​ ​a​ ​pina
colada,​ ​no​ ​alcohol​ ​of​ ​course!​ ​Now,​ ​if​ ​you​ ​wondering​ ​about​ ​dessert,​ ​stop​ ​right​ ​there.​ ​The​ ​main
course​ ​never​ ​leaves​ ​any​ ​space​ ​for​ ​dessert!​ ​The​ ​food​ ​is​ ​so​ ​good​ ​that​ ​it'll​ ​make​ ​your​ ​mouth​ ​water.
​ ​Another​ ​reason​ ​I​ ​like​ ​La​ ​Mesa​ ​is​ ​because​ ​of​ ​their​ ​usually​ ​good​ ​customer​ ​service.​ ​They
get​ ​our​ ​order​ ​right​ ​every​ ​time​ ​and​ ​they​ ​try​ ​their​ ​best​ ​to​ ​bring​ ​the​ ​food​ ​as​ ​quick​ ​as​ ​they​ ​can.​ ​But
there's​ ​always​ ​those​ ​times​ ​when​ ​the​ ​is​ ​a​ ​new​ ​waiter​ ​or​ ​waitress.​ ​Sometimes​ ​the​ ​person​ ​who​ ​is
taking​ ​our​ ​order​ ​had​ ​a​ ​really​ ​strong​ ​accent.​ ​We​ ​never​ ​really​ ​mind​ ​though​ ​because​ ​it's​ ​not​ ​like
they​ ​are​ ​doing​ ​it​ ​on​ ​purpose.​ ​ ​We​ ​enjoy​ ​the​ ​food​ ​and​ ​always​ ​leave​ ​a​ ​tip​ ​for​ ​the​ ​waiter​ ​or
waitress.
Finally​ ​I​ ​love​ ​going​ ​to​ ​La​ ​Mesa​ ​because​ ​of​ ​the​ ​good​ ​deals.​ ​My​ ​parents​ ​sometimes​ ​get​ ​a
few​ ​coupons​ ​because​ ​the​ ​bill​ ​can​ ​get​ ​a​ ​little​ ​expensive!​ ​Kids​ ​even​ ​get​ ​to​ ​eat​ ​free​ ​on​ ​Thursday
nights.​ ​Who​ ​wouldn't​ ​want​ ​to​ ​eat​ ​at​ ​a​ ​place​ ​that​ ​gives​ ​good​ ​deals​ ​and​ ​good​ ​food!​ ​We​ ​don’t​ ​eat
at​ ​La​ ​Mesa​ ​a​ ​lot​ ​because​ ​it's​ ​usually​ ​for​ ​more​ ​special​ ​occasions.​ ​We​ ​still​ ​enjoy​ ​the​ ​food​ ​when
we​ ​get​ ​the​ ​chance.
I​ ​enjoy​ ​eating​ ​out​ ​at​ ​La​ ​Mesa​ ​but​ ​not​ ​all​ ​people​ ​do.​ ​Some​ ​people​ ​don't​ ​like​ ​La​ ​Mesa
because​ ​the​ ​wait​ ​is​ ​really​ ​long.​ ​Once​ ​we​ ​had​ ​to​ ​wait​ ​for​ ​30​ ​minutes​ ​just​ ​to​ ​be​ ​seated​ ​down​ ​at​ ​a
table.​ ​There​ ​are​ ​also​ ​a​ ​lot​ ​of​ ​people​ ​who​ ​don't​ ​want​ ​to​ ​spend​ ​a​ ​lot​ ​of​ ​money​ ​sometimes.​ ​Also,
some​ ​people​ ​might​ ​not​ ​even​ ​like​ ​Mexican​ ​food,​ ​so​ ​La​ ​Mesa​ ​is​ ​completely​ ​out​ ​of​ ​the​ ​way.
However,​ ​I​ ​enjoy​ ​La​ ​Mesa​ ​because​ ​of​ ​the​ ​delicious​ ​Mexican​ ​food,​ ​usually​ ​good​ ​customer
service,​ ​and​ ​the​ ​good​ ​deals!
