Subdeacon Joe Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 "French Tacos" https://seattle.eater.com/2023/9/22/23885761/french-tacos-brick-n-cheese-first-us-location-seattle "It consists of French fries, cheddar cheese, cheese sauce, chipotle sauce, caramelized onions, and meat (or meats) wrapped in a big flour tortilla and cooked on a panini press. It’s the kind of thing a Taco Time employee would make after having four beers, or a college kid would consume after having six beers. It’s called a French tacos (even one is a “tacos”), and it has basically nothing to do with actual tacos, or Mexico." "If Americans have heard of French tacos, they’re likely confused that they are called “tacos,” look a bit like burritos, and taste like neither.

By all that is sacred and profane! That's NOT a taco, either soft or crisp! Sortuva poutine shawarma wrap. Joe, Joe, Joe…calm down. It’ll be all right. Let’s come up with a new name, shall we? - Washington Panini Wrap…Nah, neither Washington deserves recognition. - The Great Northwest Panini Wrap Let’s revisit the article. From the article: In Capitol Hill, in a ghost kitchen the size of a storage container, a pair of French entrepreneurs are cooking up a dish that has taken their homeland by storm but is almost entirely unknown in America. Well, I wouldn’t call it a Capital Hill Wrap.That credits both Washingtons. Aaaand the guys that make are from France and they’re using the name given to it in France. What do we call it Pards? We need a better name. - French Pressed Wrap? - French Wrap? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
