Estrellita's Snacks Review - Tenderloin - San Francisco - The Infatuation
"After years of serving pupusas and other Salvadoran dishes at the Heart of the City Famers Market and the now-closed La Cocina Municipal Marketplace, Estrellita’s Snacks transitioned into a quick-service restaurant in the Tenderloin. Their grilled-to-order pupusas remain a constant, though, with over a dozen cheese-filled varieties, including pork, spinach, mushrooms, and our favorite, loroco. Palm-sized and served with a generous heap of curtido, the pupusas here make for a substantial snack. But if you’re looking for a full-on meal, opt for one of their platters. The breakfast pupusa platter comes with one of these masa pockets stuffed with chorizo, eggs, and cheese with fried plantains and refried beans on the side. At lunchtime, we like the plato pupusa with your choice of two pupusas and rice and beans. (If you arrive shortly after 11am when breakfast service ends, you can usually still ask for the breakfast pupusa.)" - Patrick Wong
