Corn kernels are tossed with mayo, cotija-style cheese, chilli seasoning and lime, then served in a cup rather than on the cob. It's the elote format, built for easy eating with a fork. Within Guzman y Gomez's sides, it sits closer to a dressed vegetable than a plain serve of corn. Texture is soft and saucy, with the cheese clinging to the kernels and the lime cutting through the richness. Chilli seasoning adds warmth without overwhelming the corn's natural sweetness, and the mayo binds everything into a creamy, tangy mix. It works best alongside a burrito or bowl, adding a bright, punchy side to the main meal.
