Hi.

I'm recording my adventures in exploring my mother's food, my own food adventures and sometimes travel. That is Tyson, getting in the way as usual.

Tortas on the Go

Tortas on the Go

A new deli opened in our neighborhood and so we decided to check it out. Turns out that they also are Mexican (Astoria has so many more Mexicans that I would have expected, or maybe just in my immediate vicinity) and so a section of their menu is Mexican specialties. I went with the Shrimp Torta and took it home to eat.

I’m used to Mexican food having such bold flavors and I felt like this was lacking seasoning. It wasn’t bad, but I felt like it could have used something more to give it more punch. In addition, i like crispier bread, so I would have liked the bread to be toasted a bit more. So now this has given me the mission to find a better torta in Astoria.
