CUSCATLECO CAFE – Mexican
A small Salvadoran room on Johnson Street that opens early and cooks the whole day through from scratch. Pupusas are the reason most people come, but the breakfast plates hold their own: the desayuno salvadoreno arrives with steak, and the corn tortillas are pressed by hand rather than pulled from a bag. Baleadas, sopa de pollo, beef and chicken soft tacos and an antojitos platter built for sharing fill out the rest. Seating is limited and turns over fast, and the parking out front is shared with the neighbours. Prices stay low, service moves quickly, and the cooking stays homemade.
