Nachos Queso

Easyjet A320

When I usually go to Tortilla, I usually go with the tres tacos. However when I was recently at Bristol Airport waiting for my flight, and feeling peckish, I decided I would visit Tortilla, but this time have something different and ordered a portion of Nachos Queso.

These are tortilla chips, cheese sauce, guacamole, and salsa. Though I did ask for some sour cream on mine as well.

I wasn’t excepting anything special, as this was Tortilla, and this was fast food. Having said that I did wonder if they were a little mean with the toppings and I would end up with a bowl of dry tortilla chips! However, I was pleasantly surprised that the provided toppings were ample for the portion of tortilla chips. I was also pleasantly surprised of how nice the food was. The combination of the cheese sauce, guacamole, and the salsa worked well, and was rather tasty, zingy, but not too spicy. You can have added jalapeños if you want more heat.

Overall it was just what I wanted, a nice snack, something different, something that wasn’t a sandwich and something tasty. I got all that and was pleased with the food.

Chesters

I do wonder why a Mexican themed restaurant is called Chesters?

Regardless of the name, I went there for lunch today and was quite impressed.

I had the house specialty burrito.

A 10″ flour tortilla, crammed with cheese & onion and your choice of filling, served with salsa, sour cream & guacamole, complemented with a Chesters combi salad.

From the choice of fillings I went for the mexican chicken.

I was expecting it to be very spicy, but it wasn’t, it was spiced, but not so spicy to be uncomfortably spicy – as happens in some Mexican chain places I have been to in the past.

The salsa, sour cream and guacamole were nice as they tasted fresh and most certainly did not taste processed or out of a jar.

I thought the side salad was excellent, which was full of interesting salad type things, including shoots, cabbage, potatoes as well as other delicious stuff.

The coffee I had alongside was very nice too.

Overall I did enjoy my meal and thought it was very good value for lunch. My dining colleague enjoyed his risotto.

I would go there again (and more often) alas it is in Worcester and I don’t go there very often!
