On a balmy December night, Los Entrenadores Campeones joined the Nachojawns for a dinner out at Lolita. Lolita has been reviewed previously, and Los Entrenadores are in the nacho appreciator club as well, so we weren’t dealing with first-timers here.

Presentation of the dinner nachos was not quite up to the same dish at lunch time:

Lolita Chicken Nachos

Breaking away from the single layer, the dinner nachos bumped up the radish count significantly. As a refresher, the menu advertises achiote roasted chicken, black beans, queso mixta, charred corn, fresno chiles, avocado, and crema. I didn’t see a lot (or any) corn or chiles.

They were tasty enough though – I’d imagine the fact that people were sitting out on the sidewalk in the middle of December had something to do with the quality of presentation. Still, with El Vez’s nachos taking a dive in my estimation, is there room for a new king of nachos to pop up on 13th Street?

Happy holidays from the Nachojawn family to yours.

El Profesor Feliz sends this one in — Time Out’s list of the best Mexican in the country.

The list is California focused, but Nachojawn has visited Barrio Cafe in Phoenix. It’s legitimately great. Has anyone else eaten anywhere on the list?

What a waste of nachos.

  
From the Boston area comes this sordid tale of cheese and jalapeños.

El Cholo has been serving up Mexican food in downtown Los Angeles for 90+ years. FON Señor Pimpón sent in these, Carmen’s Original Nachos, who have been on the menu since 1959.

Señor Pimpón writes “I guess when the restaurant opened nacho condiments were hard to find. Still delicious.”

From our friends at Liquor.com comes this, somewhat labor intensive recipe for wonton nachos. They look really good, but unless you’re going to Expatriate in Portland, OR, they might be best left to the professionals.

The Passyunk Post breaks news of The Wild Burrito, opening at 2015 E. Moyamensing Avenue.

Along with the wild burritos, the owner promises some off the grid options such as ghost pepper brownies and avocado fries. And of course nachos.

The Wild Burrito’s Facebook page pegs early January as a target opening date. Nachojawn will see you there.
