Joe Flacco’s taste buds are in the spotlight.
A few weeks after Flacco moved to Cincinnati, he found himself eating his way through the city. In an Oct. 22 press conference, he told reporters he’d been visiting restaurants by himself as he was adjusting to living in Cincinnati while his family was in New Jersey.
The Cincinnati Bengals quarterback, who’s among the four stars in the third season of Netflix’s hit series “Quarterback,” recalled dining alone at Cantina, a modern Mexican restaurant in Pendleton, to offensive tackle Orlando Brown Jr.
Flacco previously talked about Cantina to former NFL players Ryan Fitzpatrick and Andrew Whitworth on the “Fitz & Whit” podcast Oct. 22, saying the food “was good,” but he didn’t reveal his order … until now.
Here’s what Joe Flacco ate at Cantina in Pendleton
“I went and sat at a place called Cantina. It was like a little Mexican spot,” Flacco told Brown during an episode. Brown told the quarterback he loved the restaurant and asked if he got the fajita plate.
Flacco told him he didn’t get the plate, but he had a stacked order.
“I got some tacos, and I got like these beans, I got these Mexican beans. Mexican rice and beans and like charro beans. And then I got a ceviche, too,” he said. “I went as soon as it opened, so nobody else would be there. There was like two other people there.”
So, that’s what fans can order if they want to get Flacco’s meal.
All eight episodes of “Quarterback” season 3 dropped to Netflix on Tuesday.
