| - I have never been to Salud before, and I definitely haven't been to Fud at Salud! My fiancé raves about the waffle sandwiches, but I opted for the nachos with a side of potato salad and banana pudding to-go.
The nachos have beer cheese, pico, and jalapeños on top (and I added sour cream for 50 cents). The beer cheese was good! It was lighter than most other beer cheeses I have tasted. The sour cream was drizzled on (I thought it was just going to be a scoop) so it was a little too much sour cream sometimes. The pico was super fresh, maybe local ingredients. I did not see an option to add a protein, such as chicken - which would have been delicious on top of these nachos! You could add chili though, I just do not eat chili on my nachos.
The small side of potato salad was eh. It was more mustard based than most (and I do not prefer mustard), and it was thicker than normal. I probably would not order the potato salad again, but our friend ordered the pasta salad and it looked fantastic! I will have to try that next.
I got the banana pudding to-go, for my fiancé. Once we were home, he cracked it open. It seems like it was whipped! I was light, and delicious! There is banana in it, but not too much, and there was not any sliced inside. It was one of his favorites in Charlotte!
Overall, the food was better than bar food around NoDa and I will definitely be back soon!
P.S. I always seem to forget to take pictures of the food... sorry!
