CHEE-la-KEE-lays / tortilla chips soaked in salsa
Timehop was kind enough to run this into my history today:
This was the line Brad and I stood in to get a torta de chilaquiles right off the plane in Mexico City. We had just gotten off a redeye flight, that was VERY bumpy, and everyone else stayed back in the apartment and took a nap. Brad and I got coffee and then got in this line when they started serving at … I want to say 9am? Bollilo bun with beans, a deep-fried pork cutlet, a spoonful of either red or green salsa-soaked tortilla chips, some crema and cheese … god, that was a hell of a “welcome to Mexico City” food stop.
Might have been the best thing I ate in Mexico City this trip.
Might. There was a lot of good food.
(I’ve been thinking I might move over all the posts from cdmx.atomicobrewing.com just for continuity? I realize I’m the only one who reads it but whatever, I do what I want.)
