An area we haven’t had a lot of nachos in yet is the West Village area. I never have considered Mexican food a strong suit for the neighborhood. So, on a recent afternoon, I decided to test my theory with Ditch Plains. Earlier in the day, Maraysa noted that coworkers were raving about the food and she was curious to try.
With this Friday’s Nacho House NYC coming so fast, we rushed to the phones to talk to idea originators and amazing band, Hollerado. They put on Nacho Houses on the map at SXSW and NXNE. So we talked to them a little about music and a lot about our common interest, chos. Come see us all this Friday at Cake Shop.
You know what they say…”Pass the Old El Paso”. Wait, no one says that? I guess this commercial was a complete fail for the company then. The jingle has been stuck in my head ever since I heard it for the first time one day ago.
Peter Borenstein of the brilliant Tu Guac Shakur was invited to bring his guacamole brilliance to Guac Rock. And boy did he represent. He made a classic guac, using picked jalapenos as his secret weapon. To prepare for a small party, try this one on for size.
What is necessary for a great party by our standards? Musical Entertainment, Free/Cheap Beer, Free Nachos, Ponies and/or Pinatas? Well, we have good news if you’re into 3/4 of those.
The NFL season doesn’t start for another month, but the fake NFL season begins this Tuesday, when EA releases Madden NFL 11, the latest edition of their ridiculously popular football video game. To get folks in the mood, fresh off the creation of their Ballpark Nacho Fritos, the folks at Frito Lay have developed another sports-themed snack, Stadium Nacho Doritos, one of two new Doritos flavors (along with Tailgate BBQ) that are “inspired by Madden NFL 11.”
That is dedication. (via Nachos NY)
Upon recommendation by superfan Karl, we added this as our last stop on the nacho crawl. When I called the manager to set up the space, he was really excited about bringing us in, which was adorably cute. When we got there, we saw balloons and streamers; we still don’t know if it was for us.
