Faust: Whoa. Déjà vu.
Trinity: What did you just say?
Faust: Nothing. Just had a little déjà vu.
Trinity: What did you see?
Cypher: What happened?
Faust: I once ate a platter of nachos at TGI Friday, and then another that looked just like it at Chili's.
Trinity: How much like it? Was it the same nachos?
Faust: It might have been. I'm not sure.
Morpheus: Switch! Apoc!
Faust: What is it?
Trinity: A déjà vu is usually a glitch in the Matrix. It happens when they change something.

After my wonderful nacho experience at TGI Friday I was actually looking forward to eating nachos at other large chain restaurants while admiring all the "interesting" flea market finds plastered across the walls. Well, be careful what you wish for. This platter was almost an exact replica of the TGIF nacho platter, but smaller. Now, this certainly isn't a bad thing, it's just the same thing, even with all the options listed above. I was hoping to find something a little more exclusive and unique from a massive corporate restaurant chain. Oh, wait. Now I see the error in my judgement...

Nothing says "corporate" more than an ice cream scoop of guacamole!

  3. HA! The first rule of Nacho Fight Club is we do not talk about nachos. We eat them.
