MOLINA'S MIDWAY RESTAURANT - TUCSON, AZ

This visit was our 3rd and the last. I finally figured out why i loved this place the first time and then with each successive visit, i was more dis-enchanted. and it was because we first went here during my friend debbie's visit in mid-May. It was such a glorious week and we were all in an uproaringly great mood that more concentration was spent on our joy rather than the quality of the food.

The prices are high for the portion size. Bill for reasons unknown but probably similar to why he loves that chicken n' waffles place and i don't, really likes the food here. Though even he had to admit that there was no meat at all on his enchilada and not much chicken in his taco.

The salsa is way way too hot and is served in a greasy and dirty ketchup squeeze bottle; yuck. The chips are cold and stale. I had a veggie burrito for $10; no rice or salad and the burrito was on the small side. It was mostly loaded with whole beans and a little bit of onion and green chilis and maybe 2 skinny slices of avocado and oozing pools of american cheese. Yuck again.

And to add to the dissatisfaction of my meal, we sat next to a family with the most whiniest and screeching and annoying and manipulative boy who was totally controlling his mom with his changing whims. Even the dad had had enough and walked out while they were still eating saying he would wait in the parking lot. We saw her carry him out after they were through and he was like 4 years old. Bill noticed the little tyke had his hand on his mother's boob.
