Tlayudas Doña Flavia - Review - Reforma - Oaxaca - The Infatuation

"Tlayuderías are in almost every neighborhood in Oaxaca, but Doña Flavia stands out since they serve a wider universe of grilled proteins, like ribs or flank steak. Here, you can sit comfortably in the two-story space decorated with colorful murals, while enjoying the enticing aroma of charcoal and grilled meats—which is part of the street cred in these types of establishments. Tlayudas with tasajo are the classic option, but we recommend the version filled with chapulines. This delicious combination is an extra large tortilla, stuffed with paste-like seasoned beans, fragrant avocado leaves, cheese, cabbage, and fresh herbs, like chepiche for lemony cilantro-like notes. Load them up with one of their salsas of varying levels of spiciness, and then wash it down with a glass of horchata. photo credit: Carlos Elizondo photo credit: Carlos Elizondo photo credit: Carlos Elizondo photo credit: Carlos Elizondo photo credit: Carlos Elizondo Pause Unmute" - Mariana Camacho
