Chili Cheese Guys

Tomorrow I'm going to the 100-mile garage sale (also known as the Hwy 141 Garage Sale) with my dad. I'm looking for Pokemon cards, Star Wars stuff and other cool things I can't think of. I got a lot of jewelry at last year's and it was fun. It's not in Des Moines. It's not in one town. You go to different towns and look at sales in people's garages. And you might find cool stuff, but not at all the garage sales. 

And now here is the place I went today for food.

Today I got my lunch at Wendy’s. I got chili cheese fries and a cheeseburger. And I got iced tea to drink.

In general, I like chili cheese fries very much. The first time I had chili cheese fries was at Adventureland  by the water ride close to the end of the park. And they had a little restaurant there and I saw them on a little menu thing. I thought they looked good, so I asked if I could have them. And then I got them, and I liked them a lot and my cousins liked them, too.

I’ve also had them at Hardee’s, but Hardee’s’ didn’t have the chili but they had bacon which tasted great, great, great! I’ve also had them at Starbucks in Nevada. Starbucks is not the coffee place, it’s a little restaurant in Nevada. They serve tenderloins and cheeseburgers, and they also serve chili cheese fries.

Wendy’s chili cheese fries are really cheesy, they have a lot of chili on them, and they taste delicious. But the cheese is nacho cheese. (You know what the nacho cheese is like, the “sauce” cheese?) The chili is kind of spicy, there are beans, and there is meat. And it’s good chili, it’s not burnt chili. Overall, the chili cheese fries taste great. Anyway, that’s my chili cheese fry story.

The cheeseburger tastes like a normal cheeseburger. (Well, that’s what all cheeseburgers taste like). It had cheese, meat, lettuce, ketchup, onions and tomatoes.  It tastes good, really good! One of the best cheeseburgers I’ve had at a fast food restaurant.

My drink is iced tea, and it is my favorite kind of tea.  It’s a good thing it wasn’t sweet tea, I hate that! Sweet tea doesn’t taste good at all! Here’s a funny little story. Once when my mom was ordering her food at KFC, she got iced tea for her drink. And then, in the van, when she tasted it, it was sweat tea, and I thought, “What does that taste like?” So I asked if I could have a sip, and it tasted so terrible I asked if I could have another terrible sip. And, that’s happened quite a lot though, to my mom.

Today for lunch I went to Starbucks. It is not the coffee Starbucks; it is a restaurant Starbucks that has been around for 35 years in Nevada, Iowa. We went in and found our table. We waited for our food. We got cheeseballs, chili cheese fries and a bacon cheeseburger for me.

The first time I ever had chili cheese fries was last year at Adventureland. It was a day when it was raining. We went to the place where they serve food. My cousins Kael and Theron were there. Me and  Kael saw the picture of them and we wanted it, so we ordered them. It was waffle fries with chili and nacho cheese on them. Me and Kael ate them in no time. They were delicious. So then that tells you how they tasted at Starbucks, too. They were thin fries at Starbucks and shredded cheddar instead of nacho cheese. I like both of them. I can't make up my mind which is best.

I tried the cheeseballs. They were breaded on the outside and cheesy on the inside. They were good. Theron has had them before so she knows what they taste like. I had a bacon cheeseburger. It tasted like a normal cheeseburger with ketchup and mustard, except it had bacon on it. It tasted great! I've had them before, like at the food festival in Des Moines, Iowa. And I also got one at Americana restaurant, which is in the restaurant reviews, too.

My drink was Diet Mountain Dew. It isn't that good for you, but it tastes good. But you can only have it once in awhile. After I ate my food I got an ice cream swirl, with chocolate and vanilla, with a cone, too. The ice cream was delicious. And then after that we left.

It is my spring break this week. So that's why I was up in Nevada with my grandma, my grandpa and Shawn. Tomorrow I'm going to a Korean restaurant!

You should go to Nevada, Iowa, and eat at Starbucks. Get the ice cream twist cone -- any kind you like because they taste great and the swirls always taste like a new flavor. See you next time on my next restaurant reviews!
