Blindly putting green chilis in everything.  That's NM cuisine.

adding green chilis to those reindeer burritos wouldn't hurt

We stayed with another couple in Hilton Head (2 bdr condo on the beach).  We had lunch at Hudson's, which is always good.  We had dinner at the Jazz Corner which is excellent, and the jazz was all that.

We then had dinner at a new place called the Black Marlin which had a nice looking menu and ... that was it, Red Lobster might be better.

I tried a new fast food place called Dave's Hot Chicken.  
Nope.

I'm not sure how it's even a thing.  Unimpressive in every way.

My kids mentioned that place as there's one local that they went to with their mom. They were also not impressed. My 12 yo said it was WAY too heavy on the cumin, which should tell you what a little bougie eater she is :57:

It's offensively mediocre. 

Hot chicken feels like something you should make well or not make at all.

I've had reindeer, it wasn't good.
But, it wasn't in a burrito

When I travel and am looking for a place to eat, if I see a locally owned restaurant advertising it has been in business for 30 or more years under family ownership, that is where I want to stop, because it will not have been in business for decades unless it has great food and service.
And so it is here in Iowa. On Saturday, Jan. 25, 2025, I took my wife and kids (daughter and son-in-law) here:
https://www.breitbachscountrydining.com/
Breitbachs is Iowa's oldest bar and restaurant, owned and operated continuously by the Breitbachs since 1852. It is a huge restaurant in Balltown, population 79. On Saturday there were far more people in the restaurant than 79. We waited 20 minutes to be seated. As always, it was worth the wait. And, surprise: My son-in-law of 1.5 years (but with a dating relationship of 13-more years with my daughter) had never been here with us. He sells cars, but his hobby is being a chef. When a guy cooks like him, and likes a restaurant, it is a huge compliment to the restaurant.

In addition, the view in Balltown is spectacular.  You can see the bluffs in Wisconsin about 5-miles away. The wind farm is about 15 miles away.
