The Best Pupusas In NYC - New York - The Infatuation

"Ricas started off as a small flat-top grill outside La Luz del Mundo in Jackson Heights to help raise funds for the church. As the lines and demand grew, the brick-and-mortar version of Ricas Pupusas & Mas was born. Run by Salvadoreñas and mother-and-daughter team Maria Ramirez and Irma Vargas, Ricas serves pupusas de arroz (or rice flour pupusas) in addition to corn. While just a smidge plainer than the corn variety, they’re crunchier and a bit browner when cooked. The cheese and revuelta make the menu for both rice and flour versions, alongside loroco and chilipín, a cousin to spinach or watercress." - marisel salazar
