| The noble torta is the king of Mexican fast food, a sandwich that's not just a sandwich. Imagine a generous bun laden with black beans, shredded chicken mole, avocado, lettuce, tomato and onion. It's a two-hander that can't be beat. There are other tortas around town, but none takes them as far as this operation does. We really like La Española, which combines well-seasoned beef with chorizo and cheese, or the Merced, combining shredded beef with onions and chipotle peppers, zingy but not too spicy. The smarts behind this concept belong to Carlos Chávez, who also owns Fonda San Carlos. Other locations. |
