    Ate in no outside seating chicken fajitas and el cabanero home style food that we just happened to…read moredrive by , not The fanciest place but got 4 stars for the quality and flavor was very expensive 45$ that would keep us from coming back

    If you ever find yourself in South Kansas City craving some south of the border flavor and flair…read morethen look no further than this unassuming, charming family owned restaurant tucked into a quaint strip mall. El Rincon Latino Restaurant is one of the many Latin owned and operated restaurants near Grandview in Kansas City Missouri however, what makes this strip mall standby standout is the emphasis on El Salvadorian cuisine instead of the traditional Mexican or Tex-Mex offerings. Also, bonus points for them being opened early in the morning to feed those traditional A.M. working commuters though, me personally, I have never tried their breakfast offerings. The morning menu seems to consist of some hearty South American staples such as Huevos Rancheros and a breakfast burrito as well as a meal that includes 2 sweet corn tamales and a cup of coffee. The national dish of El Salvador is the papusa and El Rincon has many varieties of these on their menu, most are also vegetarian. My ultimate favorite is the one with zucchini and cheese filling but, if you are trying to be the most authentic with your filling choice then the cheese and loroco, a traditional vegetable grown in El Salvador, Guatemala, and other central American countries, would be the correct choice. The loroco is described as a mixture of artichoke and asparagus with a slight floral essence. I would describe the texture of the papusa itself as close to that of an arepa but without the presence of corn-meal or masa, the dough itself is closer to a thicker flour tortilla, sort of..maybe. Well, anyway that you try to describe these griddled UFO-looking stuffed El Salvadorian goodies isn't going to be as good as a just eating one! (Or two, or three, especially with a price just below $3 a piece they are definitely worth trying a few) Also, do not skip out on the accoutrements that come with the papusas, there is a very thin watery slightly spicy tomato based sauce (perhaps a salsa of sorts) and an amazing pickled vegetable slaw condiment that takes any of the papusas up a notch, I'm assuming these are traditional accompaniments you'd find in El Salvador when ordering this type of street food. But don't count out El Rincon for other unique South of the Border street food as well such as, sopes, gorditas, tostadas (barbacoa one is excellent) as well as great prices on street tacos- under $2 daily?! Heck to the Yes!
