Cempazuchi

Nachos = An affordable dinner for two

Before heading to MAM After Dark last Friday, our group grabbed dinner at Cempazuchi on Brady Street. Adam and I have been going there since we started dating because it's totally charming (check those twinkle lights!) and can be pretty affordable if you're smart about it. 

See, Cempazuchi has great nachos — meaty, distinctly flavorful, and packed with toppings like three Mexican cheeses, chorizo, jalapeño peppers, lettuce, black beans, and guac. A full order is just $9.95 and plenty to share as a dinner for two. Can I speak to the quality of other menu items? Admittedly not. If it ain't broke, don't fix it — and these nachos ain't broke, so we never order anything else!

I'm also a fan of the house margaritas, though my friend Fritz who is a connoisseur and mixer of margaritas dubbed them merely "decent." Moral of the story: If you're easily amused by margaritas, you'll enjoy the Cempazuchi margs. If your palate for cocktails is much more refined like my friend Fritz, perhaps consider the beer list instead.
