I have never posted a photo of the tortas as usually we are eating them before I think of it. The other night we restrained ourselves long enough to get a photo; although the picture doesn't do justice to them.
They start out by grilling the buns so that they are warm and crusty, one of the cheeses is added on at this time so that it melts and is ooey gooey good. Then they add mustard and mayo. Next on is the avocado, tomato and lettuce followed by whatever meat you order, which has also been grilled and is hot, then a slice of american cheese. Then they give it to you so that you can add whatever else to it that you want to. They have a selection of salsas, peppers, radishes, cucumbers, pickled onions and probably some more stuff that I am forgetting. When it is ready for you to sink your teeth into it, it is totally yummy. I am sure it is terrible for your cholesterol; but boy oh boy is it good.
The one on the left is the one Roy orders, the "especial", it consists of both roast pork (pierna de puerco) and ham along with everything else I mentioned above. I can't finish one of these so I order the ham and cheese which has everything on that I mentioned above. They are soooo good.
Oh yah, the cost. The total cost for these two tortas is all of 43 pesos or about $4.30 and we are totally full. They also have other things on the menu; but we like these so that is what we always order.
