Nachos

What is it?

Corn chips form the base here, then come your choice of protein, cheese, salsa, sour cream, and sliced jalapeños. Everything's assembled hot, so the cheese softens over the top rather than being stirred through. Crunch from the chips, a cool dairy element from the sour cream, and the sharper hit of jalapeños are what you'd expect from the format. Compared with other items in Zambrero's lineup, this is one of the more build-your-own options, since the protein changes the finish quite a bit. Depending on portion and toppings, it can work as a snack, side, or full meal. Layering keeps the bottom from going soggy before you reach it.
