Answer to David K's Question About Huevos Divorciados


Or "Divorced Eggs"

From Wikipedia: "Huevos divorciados, or "divorced eggs," is a Mexican breakfast featuring two fried eggs, sometimes separated by a line of a refried beans or chilaquiles. Typically, one egg is covered in salsa roja, while the other is covered in salsa verde, giving them distinct and complementary flavors."

Well I have never seen the term before, so I used the translator to come up with "eggs delays". I guess they are served after the chiliquilles, or maybe after they are cold!

I had huevos borrachos - drunk eggs - at a Mexican restaurant in downtown Boston. The soft-boiled eggs were splashed with a shot of tequila, which was then set on fire. Given how quickly the flame went out, it didn't really cook the eggs much more, but it was a flashy presentation.

Huevos retardos- when your 3 breakfast companions get their meal served and yours gets brought out 20 minutes later cause they had to go to the store to buy more eggs.

Wikipedia is spot on in this case. I had them yesterday at La Esquina del chef in La Paz. BTW this may be the best restaurant in La Paz at this moment. Actual friendly attentive service + a 85p comida corrida with soup and a REAL dessert every day. Astoundingly the chef actually knows how to cook fish. And no, my mom doesn't own the place.
