Random Bites: Tasty Tacos, Gong Fu Tea, Sterzing's

Left, The good stuff at Tasty Tacos. A trio of original flour tacos and a bottle of the house salsa. I pretty much drank the bottle. Right, A pot of German Breakfast at Gong Fu Tea with whole milk and demerara sugar cubes. Gong Fu prepares a five minute steep with this presentation, otherwise three minutes served without milk and sugar

Imagine my surprise to find flavored Sterzing's chips. These Sweet & Spicy BBQ are all they claim to be, with sugar, dextrose, and chipotle listed among the ingredients. Delicious and crisp, they should appeal even to those who don’t care for regular Sterzing’s chips. Sterzing’s are known for having an oily mouthfeel, which elicits partisan opinions. I think they’re the perfect potato chip to enjoy with AE dip. Or with a loose meat sandwich, like the famous Canteen Lunch of Ottumwa.
