Noona Noodles celebrates the merge of Korean and Mexican cuisine with Milagro Tequila
May 5, 2021
Tequila is what I crave. Smooth, with a sharp hit. You’d find me nursing a shot, out and about town to what feels like a lifetime ago when overbooked nights out were the standard. Reposado on the rocks. Añejos room temperature with a zest. Mezcal tempting me for a smoke. Maybe tequila is what I crave because my palate for taste and sensation have been groomed by Mexican chefs. In a Korean kitchen of spice, peppers, salt, soups and stews, Victor, Caesar and Gonzalo have been standing by my mother’s side in our kitchen for over twenty years of my life.
