Tropico's Breeze, Seattle

Tropicos Breeze specializes in Salvadoran food, especially pupusas: thick corn tortillas stuffed with a combination of savory ingredients, including cheeses, meats, and jalapeños. As filling as they might be, pupusas are generally just one component of the meals served here. Diners can save tummy real estate for house specialties, such as tacos and tortas, and for baleadas, flour tortillas packed with beans, avocado, cream cheese, and eggs. And, instead of wriggling a crazy straw into the nearest fire hydrant, they can wash it all down with refreshing sips of horchata de morro and passionfruit juice.
