Today, I received a letter from a friend, Eliot, way out in San Antonio. Before he heads to India for a 3-month-bike-trek, he’s taking in nachos far and wide.
All of us at NachosNY have iPhones, except Dan the Apprentice, but that’s because he doesn’t have a phone, I think. Since the announcement of the Apple iPad, I’ve been scouring my brain for something to connect nachos with the iPad.Sadly, I basically gave up.
A week has past since we destroyed Astoria on our Nacho Crawl so our stomachs have had time to settle and our palates have been refreshed but I wish I could just hit DELETE DELETE DELETE on the night that was at Paquitos in the East Village.
First stop on this Astoria nacho train was Tacos Mexico. Don’t let the name fool you, their tacos may be good but their nachos were phenomenal. It took a little while for our train to get out of the station. We had a few late arrivals and Tacos Mexico was definitely overwhelmed by our hunger and magnitude.
Upon embarking on Nacho Crawl Astoria, I was prepared to not be able to gulp down a refreshing margarita until our last stop (Luna’s). To my knowledge, Tacos Mexico only served beer, but one of our courageous soldiers informed me there was a fully stocked bar on the other side of the wall I was facing.
This past weekend, NachosNY, took the subway for about 5 hours to eat nachos with 50 of our closest friends. I am here to present the second place, D’Ricuras, “Home of the Columbian Burger,” says the sign.
This just in, they have nachos in Connecticut! From our friend Cindy Rowland comes a review on some sadly so-so at best nachos.
How does one celebrate a successul nacho crawl? Dessert nachos of course. You would think after three nacho stops in one day we would be chipped-out but then you mustn’t comprehend our dedication. For breakfast, lunch, dinner, and dessert all we want are nachos.
Charlotte Gainsbourg’s new album, IRM, drops today, but this duet with Beck, “Heaven Can Wait”, has been around for about two months. Video embedded. Head to about 00:36 to see the scene featuring two buddies holding a nacho bomb.
