El Curtido - Carne Asada Taco and Revuelta Pupusa

I'll admit my taste in food is pretty entry level, and this blog is proof of that.  Before I created TACOGRAPHICS, my taste in fast food was even more limited. I've slowly expanded my horizons over the past year (mainly because I've had a couple people to try places with).

I've wanted to try El Curtido for a couple months before going yesterday.  It's a mix of Mexican (GOD TIER food) and Salvadorian food (never had). 

They had a happy hour menu, and my eyes sorta lit up seeing all the choices.  I ended up with a carne asada taco, which was meh.  The meat had flavor, but was chewy and overcooked.

I also got a revuelta pupusa.  You may be thinking WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK IS THAT?  Before you open a new tab and google, relax bro, I'll tell you what it is dude.  A pupusa is a thick doughy corn tortilla, and revuelta is a mixture of pork, beans, and cheese inside.  So yeah, it was great.  The tortilla was fresh and held the contents inside pretty well.  There wasn't an overwhelming amount of filling, but there was an adequate amount. The mix of beans, pork, and cheese was tasty without being too salty. 

It came with a side of a sort of coleslaw that wasn't a typical creamy/mayo coleslaw (mayo fucking sucks), but it was more a light shredded cabbage and carrot blend that (texture and taste wise) complemented the pupusa well.   In conclusion, GET THIS IT WAS BUENO.
