Carnitas Quiroga

The Best Dishes Eater San Diego Ate in July | Eater San Diego

"A craving for chilaquiles led me to National City, where I found an exceedingly friendly shop that specializes in carnitas from Michoacán. They manage to cook the pork to a precise point of crisp, tender, and juicy; an order of chilaquiles comes with either lean meat or a mix that includes sticky, fatty pieces and bits of skin. The dish is served with a side of beans and country potatoes with eggs scrambled or over easy, and the sturdy fried tortilla chips retain their crunch even after a good dousing in red or green salsa, which is offered spicy or mild." - Candice Woo
