Independent Journalism in Denver Needs You
We need to raise $25,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
While Jason Sheehan is taking readers’ questions, I have one for readers: Is there a place in Colorado that serves cheese crisps? These thin, grilled quesadillas covered with melted cheese are staples at Mexican restaurants in Arizona. (I just had one at El Charro, a Tucson institution since 1922, and another at Mi Nidito, which is thirty years younger but touts Bill Clinton as a fan.)
But while quesadillas abound on the menus of Mexican restaurants in Colorado, I have yet to see a cheese crisp in Colorado. Our Mexican restaurants, of course, have perfected green chile — which you never find in Arizona — so it’s probably a fair trade. But still: Anyone know of a spot in this state that sells cheese crisps?
