mmm-yoso!!! welcomes you back. This is another post written by Cathy (because Kirk is elsewhere, with His Missus, preparing/researching some postings).
Recently, a dear client mentioned a memorable sandwich he and his wife had for lunch from this local market. It's located in the same parking lot as Hans and Harry's in Bonita.
The Mister and I stopped in on a Saturday and walked through the store which is undergoing renovations. Fresh, warm tortillas in an insulated box on the floor, as well as all sorts of beverages, a couple of grocery aisles and a small freezer as well as a meat counter with well-priced selections made this look like a convenient place in the neighborhood. We ordered and paid at the check out counter.
There are outdoor tables and on the weekends, the smoker is filled with meats (ready at around 2 p.m., if you want to purchase by the pound).
Soon, our sandwich was brought out. ($11.99, includes a beverage from the cooler).
It's already cut in half and ordered with 'everything'- mayonnaise, lettuce, tomato, avocado, onion, pickled jalapeƱo and pickled carrots. Sometimes we have to 'rearrange' the tri-tip on our sandwich.
The meat has an excellent flavor-smoky and meaty (with a thin smoke ring),even with the condiments. The torta is soft and fresh. The size is just right for sharing.
A wonderful sandwich and great neighborhood store.
