    This spot is absolutely phenomenal. Fresh food, friendly service, and fairly priced. Skip the Mercado and give this place a shot.

    I've been by this place hundred times and never went in because the windows were completely covered…read morewith drapes. They took them down and now I can see inside and decided to have lunch. I don't know if it was a good thing or not. The service was kind of sketch, the police was very plain, and the menu was not very easy to read. I ended up ordering a meat dish and don't know what it was called. It came with rice, beans, coleslaw, tortillas and plantains The rice was good, the coleslaw was good and the sprite was good. This is the first time I ate plantains and did not care for them so much. The coleslaw was excellent. I also didn't care too much for the meat. The flavor was OK, but they were bits of bone in it I wasn't prepared for. Almost broke a tooth. The food was OK and very generous. But I do not think I will return here as it's just not my flavor.

    I've never specifically sought out Honduran food before, but I checked out Sabor Catracho based on…read morethe recommendation of a coworker recently. And what a fascinating experience! I'll definitely be returning to try more dishes in the future. I was given explicit instruction to try this dish, and nothing else on my first visit as it's apparently a favorite dish in Honduras. It consists of a bed of fried plantains, topped with a cabbage slaw, fried chicken, and a blend of delicious sauces. It's definitely a shareable dish as you can see from the video I've posted, and it's super delicious! Savor Catracho has a giant dining room painted a very striking Honduran blue. One interesting quirk is that every single chair (not the tables) is bolted to the floor. I've never encountered this before, but the seats were comfortable nonetheless. Check this place out, you won't regret it!

    Casa Latina is one of the carts located at BGs Food Cartel. We visited on a Monday morning for…read morelunch and it seemed like one of the busier carts in the pod, although we didn't have to wait to order at all. Cerdo frito w/ Tostones ($13.95) - The dish comes with eight pieces of seasoned and deep fried pork. It's fried long enough to make it crisp but dries out the interior. The rich seasoning, salty with a lime salt-like tang, creates a red colored skin over the meat. The fried meat is served on a bed of red beans and rice. It's seasoned well and has a good bitey texture. I ordered the cerdo frito with tostones. They include three pieces that aren't nearly as smashed and thin as others I've eaten. This means they are able to show a more tender and starchy interior rather than being almost completely crispy throughout. They are quite interesting in that they puff up like pita bread, leaving an air pocket in the center. They top the tostones with a bit of crumbled salty cheese and some salsa. Unfortunately these two elements soak into the tostones a little, causing them to become somewhat soggy. There's a tiny side of slaw, less than a small ice cream scoops worth. It's filled with crunchy vegetables and is in a really sweet dressing. I wonder if they purchase it in bulk from the Reser's down the street. (4/5) Overall, my meal at Casa Latina was a nice way to refill before our drive back up to Seattle.
