 Stick-to-your-ribs platters of Ecuadoran food are the forte of this former diner on busy Northern Boulevard, which reminds us of Los Angeles. Goat stew (seco de chivo) is a good bet, and so is the intensely yellow tripe stew (guatita). You can get both with a serving of oniony shrimp ceviche on... More >> |

 This ancient cheese maker specializing in ricotta and mozzarella also vends cheeses made elsewhere, but the real glory of the store are the Italian-American heroes. You?ve never seen a lusher eggplant parm, stacked high with the crumbed and fried vegetable and oozing amazing mozzarella. Mama?s... More >> |

 The tortilleria is the first known New York establishment to make its own nixtamal and grind it into fresh masa (corn dough). Nixtamal is corn that's been dried, and then cooked with lime (the mineral, not the citrus) in water. The resulting fresh tortillas??steamy, floppy and full of corn... More >> |

 Its Astorian cousin La Espiga II first turned us on to great cheap Mexican food, but this Corona progenitor, a Mexican tortilleria that threw down some tables and began serving amazing and idiosyncratic antojitos, is much better. Fix your gaze on the roast pig floundering in meat juices in the... More >> |

 Step up to the window of this bar, restaurant, and carryout, and you'll find yourself staring into the open kitchen, where the care taken by the staff in the preparation of the Mexican and Mexican-American menu is apparent. Thrill to giant burritos (called gorditas, or "big fat ones") stuffed... More >> |

 Is it worth lining up on the hot sidewalk and waiting 30 minutes for Guatemalan fried chicken? We can't answer that question for you, but we sure enjoyed standing in the buzzing line, scoring bird, and perching upstairs surrounded by the logos of this Central American fast-food chain. The...

For a huge, cheap meal keep your eye on the daily special soups: Sunday it's sancocho de gallina, a cilantro-accented chicken broth crammed with potatoes, yuca, and plantain, sided with an even bigger plate of fricassee chicken, rice, and salad, all for a few dollars. Also featured are outsize... More >> |
