Rachel Caire: Nachos are yum yum!

         Nachos are my favorite food because they have flavor, a deliciously pretty presentation, and are a finger food. Having a good flavor is key for it to be considered my favorite food, and nachos do not disappoint. If there is no flavor in the dish, it is like New Orleans creole dish without the spices. The Mexican restaurant, El Mexicano, adds more flavor by placing a good amount of jalapeños on the dish. Another reason why El Mexicano's nachos are so good, is how they are dressed and presented. The nachos go from tortilla chips to ground beef, american cheese to tomatoes, and guacamole to sour cream and jalapeños. The order of the individual foods are very appealing to me because they look stacked with food. In a way, I feel like I get "more bang for my buck" when I get nachos. Getting nachos when you go to Mexican restaurants gives you a variety because the nachos are dressed with meat and vegetables. In addition to all this food you order, nachos are also a finger food. To me, finger foods give you a reason to eat like a caveman without being judged. It is more comfortable to eat with your fingers because you feel like you are at home and in public. Hands down, nachos are my most favorite food.

  1. What does it mean to "have a good flavor"? What about the flavor do you like? Is it spicy? tangy? Where is El Mexicano? In New Orleans, or somewhere else? What is it like inside the restaurant? What new perspective are you giving your reader?
