It is nasty, the true inspiration was gringo customers dipping chips in the nasty Sysco ranch dressing that was put out with their salad and tostitos, and then waiters just running with it. Call it "tangy aioli" instead of miracle whip. I can see it working out; is it a new mother sauce or a new staple, nah, but on chips, I'm game. Yes homo or something. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fist 666 Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 @Mercer if you head north towards Thornton/Northglenn area, check out El Mirador. Sit down mexican spot, its the restaurant I most wish I could import to asheville. Get the chicken culichi or anything Chile Verde they do. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One Man Banned Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Had Mexican for dinner. Came with red and green sauce. No white sauce. Later on I might make some brown sauce. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any of you ever had Aguachile? I've only seen ONE place that had Mexican Mayo in each table and seen some people scoop out a spoon and use the salsa chips to eat it while given RED salsa. Aguachile is basicly ceviche using shrimp and mayo slapped onto the tostada. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr.yuck Posted October 9, 2022 Author Share Posted October 9, 2022 I'm gonna call that foo collect. Make it cost him. I read another article about this where homeboy was quoted saying if we show up to the Mexican joint and there's no white sauce, we turn around and leave. Lol. Fucking gross. My old lady loves this shit. That's good. More red salsa for me. This thread has provided on every level. The last thing to do is to go make a video of me eating this crap for all of your enjoyment. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tastes alright fresh, now I will age the batch for two days as recommended by Mr. Korfhage. I think “hot plate amigo” will be the new name for my microwave. Just did a 24 hour taste test and the dip is good. It’s is definitely not a Mexican food dip, just an all around dip. Versatile with crackers or tortilla chips. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LUGR Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 I don’t think the aging process is necessary and someone should let Mr. korfhage know. I rate salsa de pinga a 5 out of 10. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aguachile is basicly ceviche using shrimp and mayo slapped onto the tostada. Traditional aguachile does not have mayo. It's basically fresh blue shrimp with lime juice, topped with slices of either jalapeño or serrano, and sometimes cucumber, radishes, avocado and cilantro. Many Mexican restaurants that sell mariscos (seafood) do offer Mexican crema to accompany your meal, although it's mostly used on fried fish and shrimp in my experience. Tostada's are optional.

I've only ever encountered cilantro-lime salsa at Tex-Mex spots.

Pretty good spot. I don't eat at Chuy's very often. Probably twice in the last 10 years. My brother-in-law and younger brother love that place. Yeah man, La Tapatia is dope, although it used to be so much better before they changed their menu to a more be more Anglo friendly. I distinctly remember eating there once, asking for a menudo and they told me they no longer serve it. I went to University of Saint Thomas down the street and would eat there all the time! The $5 margaritas were awesome too! I might have been there late night once or twice in the last 5 years. Pretty good, maybe a bit above average, but definitely not amazing. Prices are pretty decent though. I recently began writing a taco column called Tacos y Más for Chron.com. Check it out here: https://www.chron.com/author/marco-torres/ I also wrote a list of my favorite taco spots for Eater Houston earlier this year: https://houston.eater.com/maps/houston-best-tacos-taquerias-essential -MARCO FROM EL NORTHSIDE, HOUSTON TEXAS 2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fist 666 Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 If I tried writing a taco blog in Asheville it would be this, and then never another entry. "Godfuckingdamnit this town continues to be a let down. What the fuck. I see Hispanic people of all flavors on jobsites every day. Where are your family members that know how to actually cook?
