The Glorious Establishment known as "Senor Froggy"




Now I'm quite the cheap-skate, and would like to know...Has the following ever happened to you? You're going for a stroll downtown, with either a magazine to read or a card to write and immediately desire an indoor table to sit at, out from the elements, that provides cheap eats and self-serve ice-cold water?




This mythical place does exist, right here in downtown Kamloops. The recently opened Lansdowne location of Senor Froggy Fast Food and Mexican Cantina tops my list of affordable, sanitary eateries. An extensive menu will be posted above the order counter, and the pleasing sounds of Spanish renditions of your favourite golden oldies will drift into your earhole at reasonable decibal levels from the restaurant sound system.




The menu affords a staggering amount of options, with a great percentage of them made from scratch, using fresh ingredients. The most frugalicious items on said menu include a jalapeƱo slammer for 99¢, a variety of crisp tacos ranging in price from $1.60 to $2.25, a small order of freshly fried chips and cheese for $1.99, and my personal favourite, a crisp bean burrito (includes cheese in the filling!) for a mere $2.95. These prices do not include tax, but as a wise man once said..."Render unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's!"




Senor Froggy is located at 450 Landsdowne Street.
