Salsa’s Fresh Mex Grill, Cannington
We recently tried Salsa’s Fresh Mex Grill. It’s a franchise that’s relatively new to the food court at Carousel Shopping Centre. We shared a combo of Macho Nachos, Mexicrinkles and a small drink (AU$16.90 for the combo).
Macho Nachos and Mexicrinkles, Salsa’s Fresh Mex Grill
There are vegetarian nachos options at Salsa’s, but we chose the meat nachos, Macho Nachos. You have the choice of Texan beef or chicken – naturally we chose chicken. I liked the corn chips very much. They were deliciously crisp, rough-cut and larger than the kind you buy at the supermarket, perfect for digging into (or perhaps shovelling :)) the nacho topping. The corn chips were smothered with salsa, refried beans, cheese and topped with a blob of sour cream. Pretty tasty.

The Mexicrinkles are crinkle-cut fries seasoned with Salsa’s special spice blend. They were freshly cooked and very crispy but the seasoning, predominantly paprika, I think – seemed to add more colour than flavour. Nice hot chips though.

It’s not one of the cheaper takeaway options, but we enjoyed it. I won’t be rushing to have Mexicrinkles again, but next time I think I’ll try Salsa’s chicken tacos or one of the burrito bowls. And of course I’ll tell you guys what I think of them. It’s good to have another tasty option the next time I crave nachos when shopping – remember the nachos with baked beans?

- We had a yummy breakfast at That Little Mexican Place in Victoria Park last year. I must return to try their empanadas.
- I have fond memories of a delicious Mexican banquet with friends at Acapulco Annie’s back in the 1990s (warning, the website features one of my web pet hates, auto-play music), but my favourite Mexican restaurant is still Pancho’s in Victoria Park. We are long overdue for a meal at Pancho’s – the last time we ate there was for my birthday back in 2006 (I hope you will agree my photography has improved since that post :))!
