Lonely Planet review for Nuevo Leon
Tour buses line up, disgorging dozens of gringo tourists to sample the famed cuisine of Pilsen’s most celebrated restaurant. Sounds horrible, right? Wrong. This huge place is a well-deserved tour stop, and tourists are well outnumbered by the Latino families who fill the tables. Outstanding tacos, tamales and enchiladas are available, though the dish most likely to blow any meat eater’s taste buds is the assado de puerco – tender roast pork served with homemade flour tortillas. The breakfast is also excellent.
