Mexican restaurant · Chula Vista

"This little food cart is parked in a Chula Vista parking lot, and its Guadalajara-style tortas ahogadas  — which translates to “drowned sandwich” — pack a real punch. The owners fly in their birote from Guadalajara, Mexico: The rolls have a thicker crust, meant to stand up to the sauce they’ll be drenched in. It’is filled with carnitas and then slathered in chile de árbol sauce and topped with pickled onions. Choose your spice preference when ordering and prepare to get messy." - Kristin Díaz de Sandi
