An esquite is an elote in a cup. Corn is shaved from the cob into the cup with some of the water it is boiled in. Then add cheese, mayo, lime, chile etc. to taste. Probably not for SOME gringos, but it really is delicious. If you already enjoy elotes (boiled corn covered in crema or mayo, cheese sprinkled on, lime and Buffalo hot sauce) it is a way to be less messy.

We had one of each last night in a rare nocturnal visit to Zihua after wonderful Sushi dinner at Kadi Roll and seeing the new (Amazing) Star Wars movie celebrating my beautiful wife's Birthday.

We came back to Z to visit El Rey de Hambergesas and were quite surprised to find festivities in the Zocalo!

I'll bite: who and where is El Rey de Hamburguesas? The cart at La Cancha?

Sold in those foam cups, we assumed it was a drink of some kind, but the choice of ingredients (mayonesa, chipotle, habanero, jalapeno, etc) didn't sound like a very appetizing drink.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Esquites

Google Translate's version doesn't sound too yummy:

"Food that consists of a white, spongy mass, like the bud of a rose, which is formed when toasted and burst, by heat, a grain of maíz.esquite"
