Torteria San Cosme

181 Baldwin St . Kensington Market
Torteria San Cosme is a Mexican eatery in Kensington Market that doesn ’ t do tacos . Found on the corner of Baldwin and Kensington Avenue , the sandwich shop is from the same folks behind Milagro .
The concept is largely made possible by truly excellent custom-made pan teleras from Blackbird Baking Co . . The ultra fresh bread is sturdy , thin crusted , soft and squishy and is the foundation for the nine sandwiches on the menu .
There ’ s the Milanesa ($ 10.75 ) featuring breaded chicken and manchego cheese , the Pepito ($ 11.50 ) loaded with seared flat iron steak with panela cheese , and De Huevo con Chorizo ($ 10 ) a breakfasty bun topped with scrambled eggs , chorizo , smoked bacon and Oaxacan cheese .
The colourful space from Toronto design studio tongtong features patterned tiles , bright murals and hand lettering advertising Churros Calientitos and Aguas Frescas from Brush Boys .
