There were 2 good things about these nachos:
1. Great, homemade tortilla chips
2. The sunlight coming through the blinds next to our table that allowed me to snap this "artsy" nacho still life photo
Other than that, all I can say is that these were pork nachos. I'm not even going to call it Carnitas. It was just that, shredded pork, and it tasted just like it sounds. No extra seasonings that I could discern, no kick, just pork, with all the barnyard connotations that it implies. Was that fat or was that melted monterey jack cheese? The world may never know. Harsh? Maybe, but I was so disappointed that in this recently remodeled taqueria (now a sit-down-get-served "bistro") with its nice looking menus and pleasant atmosphere (modern ceiling fans, even!), I got such poorly executed pork, one of the mainstays of most taquerias. I'll leave it at that, rate these, and move on to my next review...
