You may be asking yourself, "What the fuck are on those nachos? Radishes???" Or you may be asking yourself, "Why are there fucking radishes on those nachos?" At one time I was like you. At one time I was asking those same questions, but with my skeptical soulless eyes and some unintentional lip movement. If I was just 40 years older and grayer, and delightfully stereotypical, I may have even said, "Why, I never!" It's true though - I never. I never had radishes on nachos, and if history has taught me anything (which it hasn't), most likely I never will again. It should be obvious to my enlightened readers that I am not a fan of radishes, but after this excursion the world has certainly become a little less repulsive. To my surprise they were perfectly delicious and absolutely befitting to this particular nacho concoction.
Radishes: less repugnant than you think.
It was originally difficult to explain the impression left by these nachos. There were so many unique flavors assaulting our collective meat tongues we found it difficult to pinpoint what was happening. They were gooey yet chunky, mild yet spicy, salty but sweet. And like Keyser Söze they were there... (initiate poofy magical hand gesture) then they were gone. However, there was never any confusion regarding our enjoyment due to these dichotomies, only an originally complicated (then conclusively simple) appreciation of the piquancy. We absolutely loved them. After all was said and done, and eaten and digested, it was the sweetness that was the lasting impression; compliments of the honey poblano sauce. Very surprising considering how the menu description led me to believe these "cheddar nachos" were going to have more spice than Arrakis.
