On a recent food run, we sampled a few more items at El Aguila. DJKung had the carnitas burrito that he split with his dad (pictures in previous post).
One of the specials that day was fried poblano peppers, which are battered and deep-fried. We were not sure how this was served (e.g., as a side or a main dish). When I pointed to it, the cashier asked me if I wanted a poblano taco, and I said yes.
The poblano taco is prepared very simply. It is a whole fried poblano pepper, sprinkled with some chopped onions and cilantro, all enclosed in two corn tortillas. This went really great with their salsa and has a nice burn.
A few people ordered the cheese enchilada, which we also tried. It's a corn tortilla with white cheese, deep fried to super-crunchiness, then covered with lettuce, tomato and mayonnaise. Great with their salsa. Of course it is a bit heavy, but it was dang good.
We also got a few breads from their bakery section. DJKung's dad liked the cream cheese-filled rolls (not pictured). This is one of their crispy flaky pastries.
