Authentic Mexican Cantina
Friday, November 25, 2005
You will feel like you just walked in off the beach in Cozumel. Seriously, it is that authentic, from the rickety metal tables and chairs to the cheap and cheerful decorations.
Service is cafeteria style, and all the food is hand-made in front of you, including the freshly pressed tortillas!
The carnitas (soft tacos) are to die for. The pork chops and carne asada plate are excellent. No Burritos or Chimichangas here - just no-frills, homemade Mexican goodness.
A good selection of Mexican Beers completes the experience.
A little hard to find, El Puerco Lloron is behind Pike Place Market on the stairs down to the waterfront. It's worth the effort, though.
