Jersey City Heights Is a Regional Mexican Food Paradise | Eater NY

"Made by owners Haydee Gomez and Jose Luis Martinez who hail from Oaxaca and started the business as a food truck 12 years ago, the dining room is outfitted with sturdy wooden furniture and an order counter opposite a gleaming taco station, with Day-of-the-Dead figures in the windows. I found the Oaxacan-style tamales wrapped in banana leaves (pollo mole, pollo verde, and cheese and tomatoes, $3 each) excellent — the cheese-and-tomato was our favorite, more moist and rich with a trace of chile heat. A weekend bowl of pozole ($12.50) came in three varieties (white, red, and the comparatively rare green said to have originated in Guerrero); the green had a verdant flavor that came alive when I crumbled the accompanying tostadas into it. Washed down with café de olla flavored with Mexican cinnamon, the meal finished with a splendid pambazo — a pressed sandwich of crumbled chorizo and potatoes on a roll soaked with a fragrant red chile sauce — which was irresistible." - Robert Sietsema
