Foodie Friday: La Fogata - McPherson, KS

Today for Foodie Friday we are visiting a newer addition to the restaurant scene

in McPherson, La Fogata. I am very picky about my Mexican food so I usually

go into a new Mexican restaurant with some skepticism and La Fogata was

definitely no different. So scroll on down to read and see if they turned

this skeptic into a believer!

La Fogata is seat yourself so my brother Adam and I walked in and picked a

table in the big open area. Not long after sitting down our waitress came

by and took our drink orders and a little while later came the potentially

meal-ruining chips and salsa. I mean seriously...has anyone gone to a

Mexican restaurant and not shown just zero self-restraint while eating chips

and salsa (let alone chips and queso)?! Yeah...I didn't think so. lol

.

.

Adam and I put in our food orders. He chose to go with the fajita

mix and I went for my tried and true ground beef chimichanga.

.

Only one basket of chips later our food arrived, Adam's sizzling and

mine hot and covered in ooey gooey queso.

.

.

We stuffed our faces and surprisingly we both walked out with to-go boxes. It is

pretty rare to see my bro leave somewhere with food leftover! lol He said it was so good he

just wanted to keep eating, but was so full he couldn't. Classic tale of the

mouth wanting more of what the stomach can't have. lol He ended up

giving the place a 9/10 rating overall and said he definitely wants to come back.

.

My food was absolutely delicious as well and I totally agreed with wanting

to keep eating even though I was so full! The queso on the chimi was

absolutely perfect (although definitely wouldn't have been upset to have

had a little more lol) and all the flavors in the food were so good

and worked perfectly with one another.

La Fogata hasn't been open in McPherson for all that long, but I personally

think it rivals the main Mexican restaurant in town, La Fiesta. While La

Fiesta does have La Fogata beat in the overall atmosphere/decor, the

food at La Fogata is absolutely amazing and delicious AND the portions

are crazy big. You will be leaving there full no doubt. As my brother

said, we will definitely be coming back.
