Merendero Estela

Honduran restaurant · Brentwood-Darlington

"Merendero Estela, a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it vermillion cart with covered picnic tables, makes the case that Portland needs more Honduran restaurants. Located along a stretch of 82nd populated by used car lots and vape shops, this is the spot for baleadas, plush flour tortillas made à la minute, filled and folded with refried beans, cotija cheese, and crema. But what makes us regulars is the winning combo, pollo con tajadas. Calling this dish fried chicken and plantains doesn’t really do this pile of green banana chips and burnished thighs blanketed in cabbage, red pickled onions, and a creamy mayo-based sauce justice." - krista garcia
