Mexican Tapas: La Super-Rica



La Super-Rica Taqueria is a Mexican shack and probably the most famous restaurant in SB. Several times, I have been to this place two nights in a row. The highlights are the hand made mini tortilla's which form the base for most of the dishes and are made in front of the customers using the poori maker:)



After one of the satisfying meal at La Super-Rica, we were lucky to ran into its Chef in a mexican super market across the street and ended up buying "Masa-The instant corn flour". Enjoy pictures of the homemade Tortilla, Gorditas De Frijol (aka mexican bean kachori), Chile con queso, Hongos y chile con queso (our own creation) and Guacamole.
