"Sure, La Catrachita on Columbus Blvd. makes a few things besides birria. But like Rihanna once said, “baby, this (birria) is what you came for.” The thick-cut beef is incredibly flavorful thanks to its bath of peppers, onions, and cilantro, and it’s all pan-fried with so much queso Oaxaca that you end up with a side dish of chewy cheese crust. The tortillas are the perfect mid-point between crispy and chewy, even after soaking in that savory consomme. They also make a cheesy birria ramen using the consomme for broth if you prefer to eat with silverware." - alison kessler
