This humble, hole-in-the-wall serves delicious and very authentic Salvadorean food. The breakfast staple of sweet plantain, avocado, refried beans, and cheese, with han n' eggs prepared perfectly as requested, was amazing. I also tried the most typical dish, a pupusa revuelta. It's a style of tortilla stuffed with refried beans, cheese, and pork rind, to be eaten with slaw and tomato sauce on top. It is delicate and delicious. They also have other varieties of Pupusa....
Taught Pre-Licensing I today and stopped in at El Pulgarcito Authentic Salvadorian Cuisine for an early supper. Katrina and I had Desayuno Pulgarcito with over easy eggs. Robert N. Hoff had Pupusas Camaron. We also Yucca salad. 😋 😋
This was my first time having Salvadorian food. If you want to try a little of everything, get the combo #1 and a single papusa. Their homemade tortillas are corn and are like masa and a bit thick. Really good. Not a typical corn tortilla. Their enchiladas are like a chalupa, but 100% better. My favorite part of the meal. The service was super helpful, taking time to answer all my questions. Really great experience!
