A few weeks ago I finally let myself make a quesadilla in Stav using the panini press and something just clicked. I think people can agree that some days Stav just doesn’t give you what you want. You dream of a meal from home and nothing will hit the spot and you start to look at the tortilla line as a last resort, but still it doesn’t really seem like something you want.
If you’ve ever had this moment, may I introduce you to the Stav quesadilla. Just get a tortilla and some cheese, put it in the panini machine, add meat or veggies if you wish, get some condiments, get rice and beans on the side with some lettuce and, bam, you’re at a Mexican restaurant!
I personally love Mexican food so much, but I especially love Mexican food from a Mexican restaurant — where the chips are warm and the salsa never ends! That’s the good stuff! And maybe I’m just being delusional and haven’t been to a Mexican restaurant in a while, but whenever I get the quesadilla combo I’m talking about, I feel like I’m in a nice Mexican restaurant and everything will be okay! The meal will fill me up and I’ll be satisfied.
All in all, Stav usually gives great meals, but sometimes when I’m looking for a bit of comfort I allow myself to take the extra time to make the quesadilla, get the sides, and really enjoy a meal that I share with my friends, who have now become family.
If you want to join in this little tradition too feel free! All I wish for is that everyone has a good and hearty meal soon that comforts them!
