NachoQuest – THIS JUST IN

October 17th, 2009 | Add a Comment

So I received an email from a TOP SECRET source giving me a heads up on some nachos that I have yet to tackle, along the same lines in originality as the pulled pork nachos at Harborque. Get this: BRUNCHOS. Brunch-nachos. The dish is described as such: Tortilla Chips topped with Scrambled Eggs, Black Beans, choice of Bacon or Chorizo, melted Cheese, Avocado & Pico de Gallo served with Sour Cream & Salsa Sounds somewhat similar to Chilaquiles, but without mole and more “nacholike” than the more traditional dish. Expect a report as soon as possible. … Read entire article »

NachoQuest – Dead End Saloon

October 5th, 2009 | 1 Comment

The nachos at Dead End are a lesson well learned: looks can be deceiving. For $8.95 these nachos come with cheddar, chili, lettuce, olives, salsa and sour cream. ….sort of. When they were first brought out I was pretty happy, as they appear to be layered nicely with a fair amount of all things nacho. I reached for a chip, pulled, and something horrible happened: six or seven chips came along for the ride. This might not … Read entire article »

While I normally wouldn’t be caught dead in Stalking Horse (26 E Cross St., Federal Hill) on a weekend evening, I have to admit they’ve got some pretty good bar food. Weeknights at Stalking Horse are quiet and usually feature CHEAAAAP specials, so I’d recommend it. At any rate, this is about nachos so let’s talk about nachos. The nachos at Stalking Horse are $6.99 and featured tri-colored chips, cheddar, salsa, guac, sour cream, jalapenos and black olives. For $2.99 more you can add chicken or beef, and for $3.99 more you can add steak or jumbo lump crab meat. I guess if I had to use a term for the nachos at Stalking Horse it would be “totally adequate.” They have all of the toppings people want and/or like, at a … Read entire article »

NachoQuest – Harborque

September 28th, 2009 | 2 Comments

At the suggestion of some guy with a blog, I moseyed on over to Harborque (1421 Lawrence St., Riverside) the other day to try their Carolina Nachos – nachos piled with cheddar cheese, beans, jalapenos, BBQ sauce, and A MILLION POUNDS OF PULLED PORK. For $5.75. And let me tell you something, these “nachos” transcend the human language in terms of description and can be really only be described using a low frequency sound normally uttered … Read entire article »

Fuzzy Hearts to a Baltimore Food Examiner

September 22nd, 2009 | Add a Comment

It was called to my attention while I was away last week that a particular Baltimore Restaurant Events Examiner (quite the mouthful), Jasmine Touton, has given wicked mad props to the WILDLY POPULAR and current long term City That Breeds project, NachoQuest. Knowing full well what she’s talking about, she had the following to say about NachoQuest: Nacho Quest 2009 is nothing short of genius. Well stated, Jasmine, well stated. BONUS PIC: Here are some nachos I made while on vacation. The best nachos in Baltimore are the ones you make yourselves, folks! … Read entire article »
