Gorditas Alma - Torreon

We had breakfast in this restaurant practically every day. Gorditas are tortillas that are opened and then filled with what is available in the restaurant. In this case, Asado rojo (more or less BBQ-Rind), Chicharon (fried pork skin), Papas Rojas or Verde (potatoes with...red or green sauce), Tinga (powder), Rajas (poblano pepper), Frijoles (beans), Picadillo (ground beef or pork with vegetables), queso (Cheese), You can also cover mollettes (bread with fried beans and cheese. You can then add what is available) Of course I had egg gorditas. Not for the weak heart. I also had Licuadora. There are several offered, but mine was: banana, milk, vanilla, canella and chocolate. You guessed it, a milkshake. But so good. For those who want to know about Mexican cuisine, this is a must.
