Cali Chix Got Dat Sticky Icky

I have no idea what this place is really called but it's saved in my phone as "cali chix". It's my 2am drunk dial in Gainesville. A few minutes later and a piping hot tropi-chop styled chicken, rice and corn. A little known secret about this hidden gem is that their Mac 'N Cheese is perfecto!

Unlike most of the dishes on this site that achieve 3+ stars, this one isn't super creamy. In fact it often arrives at perfect eating temperature (a bit above luke warm) and looks more like a bowl of yellow brains. It's an overcooked elbow pasta with some aftermarket cheese blend possessing no distinct quality. The taste is bland and there is no "head" cheese to any topping for that matter. Despite all of this, it makes my top 10 list because it is utterly cravable. Somehow what would be just an average Mac 'N Cheese in the daytime becomes a "must have" at 3am.
