life in san diego II: el portal

[nibot]

Just around the corner from here is a fast food Mexican restaurant called El Portal. It is divine. I rarely stray from Combo #3, "Two carne asada tacos, beans, rice, and a side of corn cake":

The beverage on the left (sort of invisible) is horchata. yum! The paper bag in the upper left is corn chips.

That doesn't quite do it justice. Let's zoom in a bit.

mmmm.. good.

Just for kicks, let's compare this to the CERN Standard Breakfast from last summer:

And sometimes we splurged:

I wish I had a picture of the Dinner of Champions. Right now you can only read about it in the Camp CERN Manifesto.

And El Cotixan's, just a block away, is open all night!

I think El Portal's food is yummier, though.
