Free Food!

I get alerts for free deals for food here and there and last week got an email from El Pollo Loco. They have these new bento dishes that they're testing out at a location near us and were offering them free. You basically have to reserve the free dish online to get the coupon code. I reserved one for me and J! Well, they release today, so I headed straight over there right after I got off work. Zoë ended up falling asleep in the car right before we got there, so I ended up going through drive-thru, which totally sucked because that line was long as hell! I was kinda worried too because the deal was to be retrieved between the hours of 6pm and 7pm. I got there at 6:45 pm, but the drive-thru line was just too long! Oh well, here's to hoping the honor it!

When I got through, I saw that they certainly did honor my coupons! Score!

I ordered an enchalada bento for me and a chicken quesadilla bento for J. Both came with two sides each and we were allowed to swap out the sides! I got mac and cheese for me and mashed potatoes for J. The sides are really for Zoë anyways. They did accidentally put beans in J's bento instead of the mashed potatoes, but they were nice enough to pack the mashed potatoes in a separate container. Thank goodness the bento dinner plate had sections, which kept the beans far far away from the rest of the meal. Haha.

Look at all this free food!
