名厨做高档菜，下班后却爱吃塔可钟

There is a very good restaurant in New York called Cafe Commerce.

The chef there, Harold Moore, has made many high-end dishes.

He once made a whole chicken and sold it for 99 dollars.

This chicken is roasted with butter, and bread is put inside it.

However, he also praises Taco Bell's Crunchy Supreme.

Taco Bell is Taco Bell.

He says that taco has everything in it.

There is beef, there is cheese, there is lettuce, there are tomatoes, and there is sour cream.

Hot, cold, crispy, and soft are all in one taco.

It is a little spicy, but the sour cream makes the spiciness less.

He says one bite is very complete and very happy.

Listen — a chef who makes high-end food loves eating Taco Bell.

He is not the only one.

There is another chef named Bricia Lopez.

She co-manages a restaurant that makes Oaxacan food; Oaxaca is a place in Mexico.

She also likes Taco Bell.

She says the crispy, oily, and sour are all together.

These things make your mouth happy and make your brain happy.

In Nashville, there is a chef named Dung Vo.

He co-founded Noko Hospitality with others.

After work, he eats Taco Bell.

He goes to Taco Bell and buys a chicken quesadilla.

He also asks to add steak and add beef.

He says this quesadilla has a lot of meat.

He can eat it in the car and will not dirty the car.

In San Antonio, there is a chef named Jennifer Hwa Dobbertin.

She has received three James Beard Award nominations.

When her employees are about to leave, she often throws a party.

What does she buy?

She buys Taco Bell, and buys a lot.

She says many people who work in restaurants eat Taco Bell.

Why do these chefs all love Taco Bell?

Because Taco Bell's food feels very comforting to eat.

You see, a taco — the outside is crispy, and the inside is soft.

There is meat, vegetables, cheese, and sauce.

With one bite, there is everything.

This way of eating makes a person's mouth very happy.

There is another reason: convenience.

Vo says he likes eating Taco Bell after work because this meal comes quickly and can also be eaten in the car.

Taco Bell has a thing called the Crunchwrap.

Last year, the Crunchwrap turned 20 years old.

Taco Bell has sold more than 100 million Crunchwraps.

The chefs in the article also make their own Crunchwraps.

They do not use Taco Bell's beef; they use meat they make themselves.

For example, Jennifer once made a Crunchwrap with Thai food inside.

She lived in Thailand for many years, and her crispy wrap uses the flavors of Thai food.

Her Crunchwrap has chicken, curry, noodles, and vegetables inside.

Dung Vo also learned from the Crunchwrap.

His restaurant has a grilled cheese that is like a Crunchwrap.

The outside is bread, and the inside is cheese, with truffle and prosciutto.

One bite is very crispy, very fragrant, and very soft.

Taco Bell's founder was named Glen Bell.

A long time ago, he opened a small shop selling hot dogs.

Across from his shop was a restaurant called Mitla Cafe.

The people at that restaurant taught him to understand crunchy tacos.

Later he opened Taco Bell.

Now Taco Bell has a Doritos Locos Taco.

The outside is a shell made of Doritos.

A person at the company who works on new foods says this taco makes many people think: what can the outside of a taco be?

Now you can use many things to make tacos.

Use bao, use roti, use pita, use nori.

Taco Bell itself has used fried chicken, used cookies, used waffles, and used fried cheese.

There is a person who works at Taco Bell named Brett Pluskalowski.

He is on the Food Innovation team.

He is making a new thing: using tahdig to make a taco.

Tahdig is Iranian rice; it is the crispy layer of rice at the bottom of the pot.

He has not succeeded yet.

But if he succeeds, many chefs will want to try it.

Some chefs might make it before he does.

You see, Taco Bell is not just fast food.

It makes chefs think of new things.

These chefs feel that fast food also has good cooking ideas.

A taco has hot, cold, crispy, soft, and also spicy and not spicy.

This is why chefs who make high-end food also love Taco Bell.

Think about it: when you are tired after a day, what do you most want to eat?
