I live in a new section of Albuquerque. You drive down the road and there is still large pieces of undeveloped land here and there. I was excited that a Jack in the Box had opened up in the neighborhood, having never had it, the closest one being across town. I cook at home a lot but when i do not feel like it a few food choices are nice. There is not much selection in 5 square miles we have, McD, Burger king Carls jr, and a taco bell/kfc (meaning it does not have a full menu of either). Jack was having a promo, we are new to the area come in and try this combo, Burger, fries, 2 tacos and a drink. Now my thought was, hey trying to win over new customers with a hot fresh and tasty combo. Verdict: Massive fail to win me over as a new customer. Fries, while flavorful were cold, not warm but freaking cold. 2 tacos, at first I thought they were soft tacos being so cold and loaded with grease that the shell was more soft than crunchy. Might be on par with a taco bell taco, somewhat tasty but not worth going to when a 15 minute drive will get you some awesome taco cabana tacos. Burger, might be there savior, cold, but meaty, juicy and flavorful. Now maybe it was just my expections, but i figured when a new location opened up they would serve hot, fresh and tasty food to win new customers. maybe they will close and a popeyes will open up in there building.
