REGIONAL SPECIALTY

From appetizers to dessert, the flavor combination will surprise you, like in this beet and white chocolate parfait enhanced by the nuttiness of pecan praline.

Tijuana
SANDWICH
Tortas Wash Mobile
Tortas Wash Mobile, established in 1964, is named for its location in front of a now-defunct carwash. Tijuana's first torta cart only makes one thing - the perfect carne asada torta. The meat is marinated and slow-cooked over a mix of mesquite and charcoal for 12 hours. The tender carne is placed in a pan of beef stock as the sandwich is prepared. The bottom of a toasted Mexico City style bolillo is dipped in the stock, smeared with a thin layer of mayo, then stuffed with heaps of succulent beef. The sandwich is finished with guacamole, tomatoes, pickled red onions and a spicy red salsa, if desired.
