| - Five stars for these pupusas! They are absolutely divine. I had one today with pork, beans, and cheese, and it was better than any pupusa I've ever had before. Their horchata is also delicious. I had mine the Salvadorian way instead of the Mexican way, made with morro seeds instead of rice, and it was a refreshing drink for a hot day. I also tried a tamale with beans and cheese, which was just okay...it was way darker than other tamales I've had, so it might have been made of blue corn instead of yellow corn, but I'm not sure. It had a different taste than your average tamale - not bad, but not as great as the pupusas.
The pupusas come with an excellent cabbage salad similar to coleslaw and you can choose a mild or spicy sauce. They are also on the small side compared to other pupusas I've had before - I ordered one and probably should have gotten two. The food came out pretty quickly, maybe five minutes or so after I ordered (it wasn't very busy), and the staff are very friendly. This is my new go-to takeout spot when I'm around Kensington Market!
