Editorial Review for El Salvador Pupuseria – by Maren Dougherty
In Short
Inside the bright blue exterior of the City Heights eatery is a simple space decorated with a few paintings on the walls and parrot statues in the corner. But behind the understated dining area, cooks create the most treasured snacks of El Salvador: pupusas. The thick, hand-made tortillas are stuffed with your choice of cheese, pork, and a Salvadoran green called loroco. The restaurant also serves soups and Mexican fare like tacos and tortas.
