Kickstarter and You Saved the Nachos

Last week, the final numbers came in and we fully funded the Kickstarter campaign to replace my computer and camera. That means the blog will continue to rock your face off! Related posts:

Nacho Radio, We’ve Missed You

Howdy, folks. Nacho Radio is returning from a brief hiatus so prepare yourselves. Many of you may be pumping yourselves up for the usual Friday night shenanigans like cribbage and canasta. Me, I need something to get the ol' juices flowing as I watch my World Champion New York Yankees mosey up Broadway. Now if I get arrested (FYI I get REALLY angry when parades don't include candy) this may be my anthem for freedom! Or just Yankees victory. Related posts:

El Jalapeno

El Jalapeno recently opened in Park Slope in what some are calling a death-like location (Off of 5th seems to equal closing quickly). I wanted to check it out and try to help keep it open, but how was it? Related posts:

On a wet Monday night with drops pouring on my head, what could be better than Nachos? With all of my work vicinity covered by previous reviews, I decided to hike back out to Brooklyn. Related posts:

Halloween Costumes

Halloween is this Saturday. I will be at the Flavorpill Halloween Extravaganza and I've been growing facial hair for a long time to prepare for my chance to portray a Mariachi. If you're just plain stumped on what to be and you need my help: Go as one of these: Related posts:

Margarita Report: Lime Jungle

Rainy, cold-for-October Saturday afternoons don’t usually scream “margarita,” (they usually call for a favorite of Rachel’s, a Hot Toddy) but as I sat down at Lime Jungle I oddly wanted nothing more than a frozen tequila delight. Related posts:

Wednesday the 21st marked the International Day of the Nacho. The CMJ Marathon took place from October 20 - 24. We decided to merge them to create the NachoVersary at Fontana's. We combined 3 live bands, Tequila, and Make-Your-Own-Nachos. Related posts:

Nacho History Lesson

Some of you fools probably think Nachos are some fake Mexican food item that someone cooked up at the ball park with chili cheese sauce when they ran out of hot dogs. Surprise, surprise. It is legit Mexican food, at least at its origin. Related posts:

Lime Jungle and the Avett Brothers

We have received plenty of flak from nacho lovers alike that we rarely make out way out of Brooklyn and Lower Manhattan. Thanks to the Avett Brothers show at Terminal 5 on Saturday evening, we were thrown into unknown waters. We found Lime Jungle on 9th Avenue between 53rd and 54th Street. Related posts:

Young and Hungry is a sweet blog that is simply hungry for food, music and a lot more. Begat from a indie record label, they're close with a lot of the music world getting them some awesome interviews with bands about food. Related posts:
