The website for Irish women
One thing’s for certain in this world – we’ve got to eat! But where exactly do foods and drinks get their names from?
There are countless dishes around the globe with a title attached to them but did you ever wonder about the origin of their names?The origin of the nacho begins in 1943, in the city of Piedras Negras, Mexico. In a restaurant called the Victory Club owned by Rodolfo De Los Santos, the wives of ten to twelve U.S. soldiers arrived at the restaurant after a shopping trip – the restaurant had closed for the day.Though the Victory Club was closed that didn’t stop the group from being welcomed. The restaurant’s maître d’hôtel, Ignacio “Nacho” Anaya came up with a new snack for them with what he had available in the kitchen: tortillas and cheese.
It’s said that he cut the tortillas into triangles, grated the cheese and heated them. He topped off the dish with jalapeño peppers and sent them out to the diners.
