Chorizo

2/14/2010

4/5 stars

It was a dark and snowy night. Cold. Dreary. My normal quick stop in Asheville was closed. A few doors down was bright and cheerful, so why not? A bit more expensive than I had intended, but it ended up satisfying me far more than I expected.

The pork enchilada appeared quickly as a large, colorful serving. The enchilada's not what I'd call traditional. The pork was between flat tortillas topped with cheese. Delicious. The salad was fantastically colorful and crunchy.

Oh, and to those who agree that cilantro is icky, the salsa is riddled with it, alas.

None of the food was light, but the overall brightness of the food, the place, and the people kept it far from heavy. The bartender seemed really to enjoy variations. If I'm ever not just driving through, I'll want to try their margaritas.
