There’s an art to making a perfect chile relleno, as this traditional Mexican dish – made with roasted peppers stuffed with cheese – is not as simple as it looks. The best recipes are from families, handed down across generations. So, quite simply, I never try to recreate it at home, rather finding local restaurants that say it’s their signature dish. Like this stunning chile relleno from Barrio Star! They specialize in modern Mexican soul food. All you need to decide is whether you want steak, chicken, salmon, shrimp, soy chorizo, or carnitas as your protein. Of course pairing it with their signature four-margarita flight just makes sense.

People consume food, however, I think that food consumes me - through cooking, dining out, travel and entertainment. For 25 years, I have covered the food industry: dining out at restaurants, cooking, interviewing chefs, and finding quality items to use as ingredients when cooking for my family and friends.
