Facts about Barelas Coffee House

Interviewed: Manager Geri Lucero

In the video above, I asked Lucero a few questions about their restaurant. Some of the points that I would like to reemphasize from the interview are the history of the restaurant, the way the chefs cooked the Huevos Rancheros Deluxe, and the people that have entered this establishment. The history of this restaurant is that it opened 31 years ago and was started by two brothers. The way that the chefs cook the Huevos Rancheros Deluxe is by cooking the chili and tortillas fresh everyday and making the eggs the way you want them to be cooked. Some of the people that have eaten at this restaurant are celebrities, such as the actor Tony Trejo and Geno Silva. This video should give you the standard information about this restaurant. Please recommend any restaurants that you would like me to review.

First, I would like to thank Geoff for recommending the Barelas Coffee House. On Thursday at 2:00 p.m., I went to the Barelas Coffee House to review their restaurant. When I arrived, there was a sign that stated to seat yourself. I took the nearest table that I could find at this restaurant. The waiter Omar Uribe, who has worked at this restaurant for 6 years, came to my table and handed me their menu.

The menu has a good amount of dishes to choose from in this place. I asked the waiter what is the most popular dish ordered by their customers? He stated that the most popular dish at this restaurant is the Huevo Rancheros Deluxe. This dish comes with two eggs topped with chili and cheese and your choice of red and green chili. Another choice you get to make for the dish is the way you want the eggs to be cooked. Underneath these two eggs are two corn tortillas. The side orders of the dish are beans, hash browns, and another cooked tortilla. I decided to order this dish, which costs $6.00.

I chose to have two sunny side up eggs with green chili for my entree. My waiter placed the order and in 5 to 6 minutes the main entree arrived at my table. The cheese was evenly melted on the eggs and chili. The beans were soft and juicy, and the hash browns were both crunchy and soft. The chili was very flavorful and spicy. The two tortillas underneath the food absorbed all the juices, which made the tortillas very flavorful. Finally, the eggs were evenly cooked and using the cooked tortilla to absorb the yoke made the meal even more delicious.

After I ate the main entree, I order a dish from the dessert section of the menu. The dish that I ordered was sweet rice, which costs $1.65. The customer has the choice of the entree being cold or warm. I chose to have the dish cold, and it took between 3 to 4 minutes to get to my table. The entree had a good amount of cinnamon on the sweet rice, and the dish had a good amount of vanilla. Unfortunately, this dessert was okay.

Overall, my experience at this restaurant was great. The service and the main entree was fantastic. Above the text is a video of the food and atmosphere of the restaurant, so you can get a better visual of my experience in this place. After I ate, I interviewed the manager Geri Lucero.

What Makes A Great Green Chili & More

Hello, everyone. I tried to go to the Barelas Coffee House on Sunday, but I found out that this restaurant is closed on this day. Hopefully, I will be able to go to this restaurant on Thursday. However, I was able to find a source that can answer Susan Romano's questions about green chili. I went to Las Mananitas again and asked the owner Paul Vasquez some questions. Some of the points that I would like to reemphasize from the interview are the aspects that make a great green chili. The features that make a terrific green chili are the spices that are put into the chili, how long the chefs cook it, and the brand of the chili, such as Dos Amigos. Here is the interview right below the text.
