Lunch at Rancho Chico

Another week, another cross-border shopping spree! More cheap butter and dozens of choices of ice cream flavours! And course, what cross-border shopping spree to Colville, Washington, would be complete without a lunch at Rancho Chico? Well, it just doesn't happen, I can tell you that much.

After receiving our tortilla chips, pico de gallo sauce, and cabbage salsa, I had a tough decision ahead of me. I'd been regularly ordering the seafood chimichanga, but needed a change, so this time I ordered the chicken chimichanga instead, and man was it good. Served with sour cream and guacamole - it hit the spot.

My SIL went for the seafood chimi and was not disappointed. This comes with a cheese sauce as opposed to the sour cream and guacamole, and it has real crab meat in it! You don't find that everywhere these days.

For dessert, there is no dessert menu, but everyone is served a deep-fried tortilla triangle smothered in some kind of syrup, sprinkled with cinnamon, and topped with whipped cream and fruit coulis. It's just the sweet little bite you need after a really filling meal.

Lunch for two came to $18.18. You just can't beat that, can you?
