Jalapenos - Two women from Guerrero. Small menu. 7 items (2T, B, Q, N, Tamales and Fiesta Bowl). I tried the tacos Mex (carnitas and barbacoa) for $2.60 each. Just onions and cilantro on corn tortillas. The tortillas were made by somebodies hands. Meats were ok. I wouldn't complain if I had only these to choose from. Had better though. I also tried a chicken tamale. It was similarly acceptable. Order at the counter. Everything under a saw buck (just learned that another old timey term is a dixie). Open for lunch and until 8pm. Closed Sunday. Opened one month ago.
Pita - They say they started in Peachtree City Georgia. Map on wall shows this as only Florida location. Chain Med. Chain meh. A few fillers (gyro, chicken, beef, falafel, shrimp, salmon) in a pita or rice bowl or salad. But wait...there's less. Just kidding. They also have spreads and salads and fries and desserts. Hey, can I start a new "..." thing with commas? ",,," Not sure what it will indicate though. Might try and mine the whole symbol universe. Who made the period king? I tried a chicken shawarma bowl for $10. Lowest price point. The rice looks yellow in the pictures. In reality it was white. It was ok. A few chunks of chicken. Alot of ground up something or other. I believe it had a tahini sauce (gyro had tzatziki). Some veg tossed in top. Medium sized portion. White, modern interior. Lots of height. Order at a counter. A few, spaced tables. Not much of a draw. I believe there is even another fast food Med place down the street (if it hasn't shut down). I believe the opened recently too.
*Saw a cool episode on Martin Yan show about Chengdu dim sum called xiao chi (small bites). And of course they can't phoneticize, so, it's pronounced sh-ow suh. Worth a search.
