Matito's Bob Armstrong

[Vic]

any ideas on how to make it?

Isn't it queso, taco meat and guac?

That sounds about right....

I even think when you ask the waiter that is what they say...and yes i know...i was with someone one day who asked.....they should be shot.....

I presume Mattito's has affiliation with Matt's El Rancho and Matt's Rancho Martinez. I've not heard of this particular restaurant, though.

The recipe is in Matt Martinez's cookbook. I don't own a copy, but I know it's there. But, yeah, the above ingredients are accurate. At least at Rancho Martinez in Dallas, they throw in a scoop of sour cream which, if I understand the story, was in the original incarnation of the dish Matt prepared for Bob Armstrong in Austin all those years ago. I have never known the Austin restaurant to add sour cream, though.
