Red onion, jalapeno, taco seasoned chicken. Probably about a quarter pound of chicken.

Seasoned chicken on pizza is underrated.

Cost per person, $3.50

Funnily enough, there's a Saturday farmer's market that meets right next to the cantina, with several local farms being represented. I don't know how much scale they could really handle in terms of various veggies for a restaurant, but at least they could help them replace that mediocre Sysco cilantro and maybe a couple other herbs.

Unfortunately, the cantina owner seems pretty incurious about that and other significant details of serving good food, which is why I don't expect them to last. The previous cantina runner in the square was awesome with foodie details, but Covid basically shut him down, sadly.

Thanks a lot, Winnie the Xi.

It's not the sad herbs. Sysco's problem is the same frozen heat and serve goods at every restaurant. The same burger patties, buns, cheese, salad dressing, jalapeno poppers, potato bites, breaded chicken, etc.

That probably explains why I'm largely oblivious. I don't go out much, but when I do it's usually stuff like SE Asian, Mexican, Soul, and Indian.
