Torteria San Cosme Kesington Market
The Charros ($ 3.75 ) is a hearty stew of bayo beans with bacon , chorizo , serrano chilies and tomato . This is comfort in a bowl boasting rich , smoky flavours .
I also try the elote and esquites ($ 3.75 ). The former is steamed corn on the cob creamed up and rolled through cotija cheese and dusted in chile piquin , while the latter features nibblets stewed with epazote and onions and served in a bowl with the same crema , cheese and chili garnishes .
They ’ re both good , and I wasn ’ t expecting to like one more than the other , but I do . The addition of sweet onions in the esquites is subtle but delicious .
I want to eat the churros ( I saw an order pass by and they look like chunky chips dusted in sugar and squirted with cajeta ) but they ’ ll have to wait for another day . Tortas are way more filling than tacos and with the option to make any sandwich a combo (+$ 3 ) with a side charro , esquites , or ensalada cesar , it ’ s unlikely to leave unsatisfied .
