About to eat some Chik-Fil-A

[swizzlenuts]

I ain't takin' flack from no damn can't even put salt on our food Yankee.

OK Fine. I'm not gonna defend New Mexico because we don't like them anyway, but Colorado green chili pwns your soul.

@swizzlenuts Did you ever eat at Blake's Lotaburger?

of course i ate at blakes. It's a fine burrito/burger, but cmon. These fucks are like a European coming to the US and saying the best burger is at McDonalds, therefore american burgers sucks

the chile's from colorado are weak compared to new mexico, what are you on?

 

[swizzlenuts]

Green chile sauce is kinda lame tbh.

new england person thinking they know what mexican food tastes like. holy fuck. Have you ever tasted a chile?

 

[swizzlenuts]

You may be on to something.

Try this, it's the best carne asada i've ever had. the salsa from the marinade elevates everything.

I also made empanadas from this recipe. Top tier.

You guys are insane. You think there aren't actual Mexicans FROM MEXICO that live right here in Providence that have bomb restaurants and shacks?

LOL @ "have you ever tasted a chile?" Seriously?

Eh, there's a friendly rivalry so I keed. Really there's not a great deal of difference where I lived. The San Luis Valley was essentially an extension of Taos in the 1850s and the Hispanic population there is quite insular. I think that's one of the reasons the food there is so good (and a reason why I don't think anyone who hasn't been there can really judge). Things there have been affected very little by outsiders (especially the food). In that regard in may have a leg up on some urban areas in New Mexico.

I know the folks up in Pueblo think they have great green chile (that's what's mostly known as "Colorado Green Chile") but ehhh. I'm not from the part of Colorado that anyone thinks about when they think about Colorado.

The problem is that Mexicans from Mexico don't make the same kind of Mexican food as Mexicans in the Southwest. This is not even to mention regional varieties both in Mexico and throughout the Southwest. Unless those folks moved from Colorado/New Mexico and opened a restaurant in New England that is specifically New Mexican then we aren't really talking about the same thing.

Maybe not as prevalent but there are. I'll take you to at least two restaurants right here in Providence that'll rival anything you have around there. I promise you. And a mezcal selection to die for.

Arabian? Not really.

Well, if that's so, then okay. I'm referring to authentic Mexican cuisine.

Indian then? Currie?

Green/Hatch chile sauce is lame, yes.

 

[Krilons Resa]

Indian then? Currie?

Fuck yeah. Indian and Thai are my favorite, actually.

Curry.

 

[J.]

Can we all agree food trucks are the best?

 

[J.]

Curry.

Thats what i meant. Ive been to an Indian restaurant once. It was pretty good. I have no basis for comparison though. Lots of different sauces. Very filling

It's good stuff. I really want to start making some road trips through small town BBQ joints when things clear up.

I also greatly enjoyed Memphis BBQ (and Nashville Hot Chicken for that matter) when we passed through Tennessee last year.

 

[swizzlenuts]

Green/Hatch chile sauce is lame, yes.

i'm seriously shocked about this opinion. feels like you all don't know what mexican food actually tastes like
