Another visit this week. I started with the Tortilla Soup - Sopita de Tortilla, with colorful, crisp tortilla strips, avocado and crema. I don’t often order tortilla soup but this was excellent, with ancho and probably one other chile.
My main was the carnitas tacos - excellent, with lots of raw onions and cilantro. The meat was a little on the dry side but the very smoky salsa added the right amount of moisture.
The dessert was called a corn mousse but was bisque-like in texture, with dulce de leche more prominent than corn flavor. I was disappointed in the texture but it was good.

The agua fresca this time was Melon and again I couldn’t finish it. I realized the drinking glasses are made from old bottles. Cute.
A little pricey, especially compared to my more usual lunch fare,and the portions are smallish,but there’s lots of flavor and you don’t leave hungry. I wish this place was closer to me. I’ll try some of the regular menu one of these times when I’m really hungry.
A weekly menu of the Comida Corrida is posted on Facebook on Tuesdays (they’re closed Monday) so you don’t have to check in every day to see what’s offered.
