The canasta (basket), and the towel draped over its contents, render the written sign superfluous — unless you need extra convincing that warm tacos on a brisk afternoon are ricos (delicious). This close-pressed trio ($1.25 each), dressed in salsa verde, were filled with black bean, potato, and, closest to you, pork.
Return visit: now with tepache (by the cup, $4; also in the larger containers shown below).
