Puzzle by Gail Grabowski, edited by Will Shortz
TACO TOPPING (64A. The start of 17-Across or 11- or 33-Down) with CHEESECLOTH (17A. Open-textured cotton fabric), ONION DOME (11D. Russian church feature) and SALSA CLUB (33D. Jazzy Latin dance site) are the interrelated entries featured in this Monday back-to-work crossword. I’ve never had a taco myself so I’ll take this puzzle’s word on the toppings -- however, just last Wednesday, the puzzle featured TACO, clued as “Crunchie munchie”, so I’m getting a good idea as to the ingredients and the consistency of the item -- however, here’s all one probably needs to know about a
TACO.
A few links:
SNEEZE (21A. Allergic reaction); MACHO (1D. Like a he-man); ITEM (61D. Talked-about twosome); and …END (38A. Bring to a halt).
