New York City 2024 Travel Log: Day 1 — A Mexican-American Culinary Adventure at Mexicue

on
Friday, May 24, 2024
Greetings from NYC! I am back after six months to finally meet my nephew, who is now four months old. (I gotta say, he is freaking ADORABLE, and I am not someone who cares for babies.) Anyway, being in NYC means dining exceptionally well because my brother is a foodie and always plans out some new and exciting eats for us. So for the first meal on this weekend's NYC trip, he took us out for some incredible Mexican-American food at Mexicue:

Grilled street corn with creamy chipotle, cotija, and chili powder

Charred jalapeño guacamole with house tortilla chips

Crispy Masa-crusted wild cod tacos in corn tort with citrus chili sauce, pickled onions, creamy chipotle, and salsa verde

Nashville fried chicken tacos in corn tort with creamy chipotle, and pickled peppers

Brisket tacos in grilled flour tort with cheese, pickled onions, Mexican BBQ sauce, lime crema, cotija, puffed quinoa, and scallions

As much as I love Taco Bell and Chipotle, this is what a true fusion of Mexican and American cuisines is. Mexicue puts Southern American twists on Mexican classics resulting in incredible combinations of flavours and textures made with the freshest ingredients. Highlights for me were the guac and the fish tacos, but I would easily re-order any of these. An exceptional spot for anyone looking for a more sophisticated Mexican-American food experience.
