P.O.E.T.S. RESTAURANT

If a half-pounder of angus beef isn’t enough to fill your dreams, the homemade jalapeño buns at P.O.E.T.S. will really put some color in your cheeks. This family restaurant will remind you why hotter burgers go a little better with a fun ambience, and margaritas. 4825 Saratoga Blvd.

NUEVO CAFE
br
You’d recognize that green paint anywhere. Nuevo Cafe offers up a casual dining vibe that can be elevated with the addition of a little spice. Their homemade jalapeño buns are delicious on any sandwich of choice. Sometimes, we even like to use them as a dipper for the classic poblano soup. That means double the spice! 1124 Ayers St.

SMALL PLANET

For a bigger kick than usual at the local Small Planet, the South American Lomito is served hot and proud on a jalapeño cheddar bun. The delicatessen and bakery on Saratoga does not play around with their homemade buns, and the jalapeño cheddar is no exception. 5625 Saratoga Blvd.
