Street food is ubiquitous here. Almost every corner and many doorways along the street have people selling something to eat: fruit, ice cream, tacos, fried potatoes, fresh squeezed orange juice - you name it. But the thing I've had my eye on for a while to try is " Elote". Elote is corn on the cob with lots of embellishments. You choose a cob, grilled or boiled. Then the vendor pounds a stick in the fat end and slathers on mayonnaise, followed by crumbled cheese, then lime juice and finally chili powder and salsa. As they say here, it's ricissimo - delicious.
This looks amazing! Now I want some.
ReplyDeleteInterestingly...at my birthday dinner last night (12/30/16) we all had an extensive conversation about Oaxacan grilled corn that you buy on the street and all the goodies that you can get sprinkled on top. We must have been feeling your vibes!! Comelo mucho!!
