Choki's near Campo Lopez?
Where can I find Choki's cookies nearby to Campo Lopez? Calimax in Rosarito? I'd like to buy one of each color and give them the Chip's Ahoy
comparison test. Not generally a big fan of sweets, but I do indulge once in a while, for research purposes only, of course.

I'm sure there is. My friend's place is just south of Cantamar.

Is it open yet? I drove by a month ago and was still under construction. I'll check it out on Saturday, thank you.

The Calimax at Puerto Nuevo is still under construction. I did stop at the OXXO nearby and fulfilled my quest, and more:
Not two, but three different styles!
Unfortunately, I got back to Campo Lopez and realized I had forgotten to buy....MILK! Arrrgh!

Those rellenas look delicious. Don't think we had any of those on our cookie challenge.

I don't know...if it has a soft, or chewy texture it doesn't belong in a chip off! I never tried the rellena's, are they crisp?
If you are not living on the edge, you are taking up too much space!
"Could do better if he tried!" Report card comments from most of my grade school teachers. Sadly, still true!

Yes, it's more of a thin layer of chocolate in the middle. Just tried the Rellenas, a bit softer cookie texture than CA's, but crisp, more research
to come. So far, very tasty.

The red Chokis might be the best....mostest chocolate flavour... readily available at most small tiendas....don't need no stinkin' Oxxo... 
Don't believe everything you think....
