Comments on: Double Your al Pastor http://bushwickbk.com/2009/10/30/double-your-al-pastor/ News and views from Bushwick, Brooklyn Wed, 16 Nov 2011 12:21:44 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1 By: Professional Alternative http://bushwickbk.com/2009/10/30/double-your-al-pastor/comment-page-1/#comment-18334 Professional Alternative Thu, 31 Dec 2009 21:01:42 +0000 http://bushwickbk.com/?p=3208#comment-18334 This place made me realize I actually do like some Mexican food -- not all of it is poverty slop from Chihuahua. Poblano food is actually quite sophisticated and lovely, and El Paisa on Suydam is some of the best I have had. The al pastor is so juicy and sweet and tangy. For the life of me I can't understand why people crowd into and relentlessly cover Los Hermanos in the media, maybe it's "safe" and the media just copy each other. Even though they make the damn tortillas at Los H., they taste old and chewy in a bad way, while at El Paisa they're light and soft, though still made locally. They also have table service, actually have an exhaustive menu, and are personable, things you can't really say about Los H. El Paisa rules!

I've been a fan of this place for a couple of years now. Al pastor is definitely tasty. Their nachos (they'll add fresh guacamole to any meat combination) are amazing. That guacamole is worth the trip in itself. Careful though, it's got a lot of fresh jalapeño peppers in it unless you specify "mild." Plus, I find the wait for food at Tortillería los Hermanos to be really annoying anymore so it's nice to have other options. Yeah! I’ve been a fan of this place for a couple of years now.

I biked right over to El Paisa on Irving and Myrtle and had better al pastor than at anywhere I've tried in Queens or Sunset Park so far. Thank you, Scarlett. Congrats, this is a real find.
