Buffalo Wild Wings - Dessert Nachos???? YES!

Just to let you know, I accidentally deleted all the pics I took with my camera, so we only have the few below.  Super bummers cause there were some good ones.  This night will have to live on in our minds alone.  :)

We heard a rumor that there were dessert nachos at Buffalo Wild Wings.  And it was true.  The bar area was nice because we got to move a few tables together and take over the corner.  And the server was super awesome putting up with us.  You know how the server comes and asks if anyone wants anything, people order, they bring it back, and then suddenly more people want drinks that didn't before.  And so on and so on.  Our gang can be pretty bad at this sometimes since we have so much going on with catching up and evaluating the nacho goodness on our table.  When we told them we were nacho bloggers, they even asked the kitchen to make us some old nachos that are not on the menu before.  Super cool for them to go out of their way for this.  They ended up being better than the regular nachos on the menu.  We think they should offer the nachos with whatever kind of chicken wings and sauce they want on them.  Chicken wing nachos ah yeah!   The trivia was fun, Tom kicked everyone's ass.  $9.49  for the nachos, $11.79 to add chicken.  Dessert nachos were $8.49.



Grannysaurus (4, overall) - Very Nice!  Cody had an impressive spread on his tray! RAD: White cheese is awesome on plan chicken and cheese nachos!  Captain and coke on special! LAME: Not enough napkins…and dessert nachos were all the way at the end. T:C Ratio=Everything looked great.  Only had a bite though.  Ate a kids meal (also on special).  Service was great.  And I love me some trivia.




Traci (3-Regular, 4-Dessert…ice cream and caramel were involved) - I was late so I only saw the regular nachos half gone.  Dessert nachos=huge scoops of ice cream!! RAD: The chicken was spicy and delicious, fresh cilantro was yummy.  The ice cream didn't melt, crunchy sweet chips. LAME: Regular-celery does not belong on nachos.  The chili was blah.  Only nacho cheese, real cheese would have been awesome.  The salsa tasted like chili powder, weird.  Dessert-Too few chips and too big! T:C Ratio=Dessert-2, more chips!   
 



Cristy (4) - Looks like a good amount of toppings to chips. RAD: Not just cheesy, but a whole lot more! LAME: Shallow plates. T:C Ratio=3, variety of toppings. Fun atmosphere, Cody is a rad waiter.  Dessert nachos:  Presentation was nice, cool cheesecake balls, I like me some balls!


 
Cody bringing out all the goodness!


Shananigans (3, the chili nachos sucked) - Looks huge, but the plate is deceiving. RAD: kitchen made us nachos that were not on the menu anymore and the buffalo chicken ones rocked with chunks of blue cheese all over the spicy goodness. LAME: Chili had bland meat, tasted like nothing.  I seriously hate it when people put iceberg lettuce on nachos, it's just a cheap filler that sucks.  Maybe some cabbage on some Asian nachos is ok, but iceberg…so lame!  T:C Ratio=3.5, too much lettuce, not enough cheese, not enough chips to finish the toppings at the end.  It would be super rad if they made chicken wing nachos, with whatever sauce you want.  Cody, our server, was awesome.  Staff was super friendly and everyone kept checking on us to make sure we were ok.  The dessert nachos had a giant ball of ice cream, deep friend cheesecake bits, cinnamon chips, and caramel syrup.  Ridonkulous.

TJ (4) - Took forever!  But upon arrival…MAMMOUTH! RAD: Triple threat, three different meats on one nacho plate. LAME: Even with the jalapenos it was not spicy enough. T:C Ratio=4.  Cody rocked that service.  TJ has a crush on Jezak.  <3  Couldn't try the dessert nachos because too busy staring at Jezak.

Nick Nock (2) - Looked healthy with lots of lettuce and celery. RAD: Buffalo chicken chucks with blue cheese. LAME: Chili, nacho cheese instead of real cheese. T:C Ratio=3, plenty of toppings but they all fall off.  Good atmosphere, they trick you with shallow plates.  Dessert nachos are giant balls of ice cream on a fried tortilla.  Way too much to handle but the fried cheesecake balls are pretty good.
 


Cowabunga (3, solid like a lukewarm shower, cleans your junk but it's just ok) - Vagina coloring book and nachos…together at last! RAD: Queso was moist like a cellar…all mildewy!  Dessert nachos - oh my bunuelos! LAME: The queso was good, but no shredded cheese makes a jack a cranky, cranky boy T:C Ratio=2, lots of dry chips then lots of toppings at the end!  It was like hiking the Sahara desert then getting swept away in the great flood.  3 month old Stanley Cup Playoff games and surf competitions from last year?  Let's update the satellite guys.  The waiter was awesome!   

Melynne (4, like the pork BBQ meat the best) - Soooooo hungry these nachos are gonna get it!  Lots of crazy toppings look delicious…what are you doing here celery? RAD: Spicy deliciousness….if nachos make you sweat, you know they are good.  Chili, salsa and chicken have great spicy sauce! LAME: The regular nachos were in front of me first until Christy saved the day and switched them.  Triple threat is where it's at. T:C Ratio=4.2, great topping….no chip left behind, plus the extra delicious salsa helped add toppings. Dessert nachos:  Wow! Look derricious! Caramel and choco goodness.  Dessert nachos are practically sopapillas!!  What goes better with chips and salsa than more chips!  Not enough delicious fried tortillas.  4.5 rating, wish I had a whole plate to myself.  mmmmmwwwhahahahaha

JP (3) - Like a budding rosebud of bountiful meaty goodness. RAD: Learned about Countdown. LAME: I ordered a diet Captain and coke. T:C Ratio=Too many olives, crunchy.  Cody is the name of our server, "He coo'."  Dessert nachos:  I was all about the dessert.  Ice cream good.  Mmmmmm.  I got chocolate covered fingers.  



Mitch Dundee (4) - Well presented, great ration between toppings, "This looks great!  Let's eat."  There was a solid amount of flavor considering we ordered vegetarian. RAD: Sauce and extra cheese were in separate containers, no soggy nachos! LAME: Guac would have been ideal! T:C Ratio=4, great ratio, but not perfect.  Service was great, prompt and helpful.  Dessert nachos:  pleasant surprise, meal of the night!  Great presentation and even better taste.  The deep fried ball things were a nice touch, saved it from being too plain.  Great dessert!

Peanuts (4) - Very clean and festive appearance, chips followed no visible pattern/organization, which was a disappointment.  Toppings were sectionized and of great variety, lettuce was especially noteworthy. RAD: Definitely the cheese.  It was very cheesy and a perfect temperature - slightly above room temp.  This allowed for the chips to easily dissolve into the mouth. LAME: The tomato topping chunks had weak texture and lacked a high quality moistness level. T:C Ratio=4, excellent usage of chip real-estate, toppings bonded nicely to chips surface and provided a reasonable amount of extra topping to snack on.  Server was excellent, strawberry mojitos were dangerously, surgery not recommended.  Dessert nachos:  very flavorful, good sugar to cream ration.  Vanilla ice cream had good consistency, but lacked visible bean particles-an essential quality.  Overall the long Mexican word bottom base was perfectly cooked.
