Pairing Quesadillas correctly — a note on Mexican lager with lime
Most people overlook how much the right drink changes Quesadillas. I ordered it with Mexican lager with lime and the smoky and earthy elements of the dish sharpened considerably against the pairing. tomatillo in particular became more prominent in a good way.
Mexican cuisine is a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage. The a home kitchen on a Sunday is where you learn these pairings — they evolved together. If you've been having Quesadillas with the wrong drink, try it correctly once. It's a genuinely different experience. The restaurant deserves credit for getting this right.
