El Pollo Loco

Anybody eat this on a regular basis?

We just discovered the joy of eating at El Pollo Loco (not at the restaurant, take home actually) not that we never knew of it before, but i guess rediscovered the goodness of it.

Seems very healthy to eat everyday if we can, chicken, minimize the tortillas, dont get the carb heavy sides like potatoes and rice, and get alot of salsa, serrano peppers, lemon.

Who else eats el pollo loco? is it good for you to eat everyday? sort of cheap and lots of food.

Only downside is so difficult to bring everything home, they give you the little tiny plastic cups for the salsa and stuff and it usually is a mess and sticky to bring everything home in order.

EPL is one of those places I never want to eat at when I'm trying to figure out what to take out, but if I end up there with someone else I always leave thinking it was really good, but then next time I want take out it's off my radar again. some reason it doesnt stay on my places to eat list

EPL, Arby's and In-n-Out are the only fast food places I like. I don't think I have been to any others in 15 years.

EPL chicken is good. It is too tasty to be good for you. Probably very salty and fatty.

Arby's is ... I just don't know what to say.

In 'n' Out is great. I have it once almost every time I come home.

my parents used to tell me that Arbys was "healthy fast food"....I dont know why, it's not like they believed that necessarily. maybe they had stock in it

When the Simpson's kids are trapped on a deserted island, Lord of the Flies style, one of them says "I'm so hungry I could eat at Arby's!" And the others gasp in shock and say, "Wow, that IS hungry!"

I'm just glad Arby's finally simplified things and went to small, medium and large sizes for their roast beef sandwiches.

I could never remember whether I preferred the Giant Roast Beef or the Super Roast Beef when I'd get to the drive-through.

In n' out burgers are just plain old-fashion GOOD.

I have not had EPL since high school. I did remember it was baked? and quite good.
