Catching up

I’m so behind on these reviews, but here are all the places I’ve had huevos rancheros over the past few years (1 tortilla soup place):
 
July 1, 2010
Mexican Radio
19 Cleveland Pl (between Kenmare St & Spring St)
New York, NY 10012 
(212) 343-0140
Food was decent but we sat downstairs and there was a weird, hard-to-ignore smell.
 

October 16, 2010
Cookshop
156 10th Ave (between 19th St & 20th St)
New York, NY 10011

 (212) 924-4440
Someone I know raved about the huevos rancheros here, however, he should have warned me that that are NOT huevos rancheros. They are more like baked eggs and have pickled onions. The spiciness was good. Had high expectations that were not met – not even close. The main memory I have of these is that they were definitely not the best – mediocre to bad.

October 30, 2010
Spoon
17 W 20th St (between 5th Ave & Avenue Of The Americas)
New York, NY 10011
(646) 230-7000 
Not as saucy, but all the components were flavorful. Basic & good.

November 7, 2010
Blockheads
1563 2nd Ave (between 81st St & 82nd St)
New York, NY 10028
(212) 879-1999
We came here before watching the marathon (I assume because it was convenient, not because of the food). Not really sure why people like Blockheads… would never recommend the food.

November 21, 2010
Cafe Cortadito
210 E 3rd St (between Avenue B & Avenue C)
New York, NY 10009
(212) 614-3080
I hardly remember coming to this place, which means it wasn’t good enough to be memorable. 

January 29, 2011
Wicked Spoon Buffet
The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas
3708 Las Vegas Blvd S
Las Vegas, NV 89109
(702) 698-7000
This buffet as a whole was pretty amazing! And the huevos rancheros were really good! Over a year ago and I still remember them well.

April 2011
Bogota Latin Bistro
141 5th Ave (between Lincoln Pl & St. John's Pl)
Brooklyn, NY 11217
(718) 230-3805
I haven’t been to Brooklyn since this! That’s not meant to imply that I didn’t like the food. The soup was way too salty (couldn’t even finish it) and the rest of the food I ate was much better (chips, main course).
