Hola amigos feliz noche a todos espero estén super bien , hace unos días salimos en búsqueda de nuestra nevera nueva que si gustan ver lo podrán encontrar en unos post anteriores en fin el punto es que nos agarró casi las 2 pm en la calle y teníamos muchísima hambre Pero realmente no queríamos gastar mucho por el tema de que ese dinero era para la compra de la nevera, buscando en el centro comercial le dije a mi novio que en Mike pollo vendían almuerzos así que nos fuimos para allá , al llegar le preguntamos a la cajera y nos dijo que si que tenían un costo de 5$ y tenían varias cosas , tenían como proteína carne salteada con vegetales, pollo asado , y pollo a parmesana y de contornos había papas rústicas , arroz blanco, arepitas , ensalada rayada y ensalada tipo cesar , tajadas ; en fin nos pareció bastante bien así que ordenamos en total gastamos 10$ en los dos platos.

Hi friends, good evening everyone, I hope you're all doing great. A few days ago we went out looking for our new refrigerator, which you can find in some previous posts if you'd like to see it. Anyway, the point is that it was almost 2 pm when we were out and about and we were starving. But we really didn't want to spend too much because that money was for the refrigerator. While looking around the mall, I told my boyfriend that Mike Pollo sold lunches, so we went there. When we arrived, we asked the cashier and she said yes, they cost $5 and had several options. For protein, they had stir-fried beef with vegetables, roasted chicken, and chicken parmesan. For sides, there were rustic potatoes, white rice, small arepas, shredded salad, Caesar salad, and plantain slices. In short, it seemed pretty good, so we ordered. In total, we spent $10 on the two dishes.

Íbamos a comprar una bebida pero la chica nos dijo que esto venía con un vaso de refresco, nos dieron un dispositivo el cual nos avisaría cuando el pedido estuviera listo una vez listo nos dimos cuenta que también traía una sopa me pareció súper bien, está sopita a mi si me gustó bastante era como se lentejas estaba bastante casera , el pollo super rico no tengo ninguna queja , la ensalada la verdad sabia a lechuga con mayonesa nada especial Pero las papas estaban terribles pues yo pedí mi almuerzo una milanesa a la parmesana con ensalada tipo cesar y papas rústicas esas papas estaban terribles hasta el punto en el que no pude casi comerlas estaban arenosas como congeladas la verdad no sé pero super mal .

We were going to buy a drink, but the girl told us it came with a glass of soda. They gave us a device that would notify us when the order was ready. Once it was ready, we realized it also included soup. I thought it was great; I really liked this soup. It was like lentil soup and tasted quite homemade. The chicken was delicious; I have no complaints. The salad, to be honest, tasted like lettuce with mayonnaise, nothing special. But the potatoes were terrible. I ordered my lunch: a breaded steak with Parmesan cheese, a Caesar salad, and rustic potatoes. Those potatoes were awful, to the point where I could barely eat them. They were gritty, like they were frozen. I don't know, but they were really bad.

Mi novio había pedido lo mismo Pero con arepitas y sus arepitas estaban bien ricas y yo me arrepentí mucho de no haber pedido otro contorno como arroz o arepitas 🥹 en general todo estuvo bastante bien y un costo muy accesible si pero si un día van no pidan las papas rústicas 😅

My boyfriend had ordered the same thing, but with arepas, and his arepas were delicious! I really regretted not ordering another side like rice or more arepas 🥹 Overall, everything was pretty good and very affordable, but if you ever go, don't order the rustic potatoes 😅

Your story about searching for a satisfying meal amid the excitement of a new refrigerator resonated deeply with me. It's fascinating how we find valuable lessons in the simplest moments of life. Sometimes the decisions we make, whether to save money or satisfy a need, can lead to pleasant surprises, like that lentil soup that was a real find.

It is natural to feel a little disappointed when something does not meet our expectations, such as the rustic potatoes on your plate. However, those experiences are what teach us to be more mindful of our future choices. Next time, you may opt for the arepitas that turned out to be a hit, and that is part of the journey.

The way you handle the situation, recognising the good and the bad, reflects an admirable attitude. Let us thank God for what we had, learn from what was not ideal, and move forward with a smile. May each experience, good or bad, bring us closer to enjoying what really matters!
