Tortas Los Picudos
If you stop by this Mission shop for a torta–and you should–make it a multi-pork sandwich. Pierna desebrada (shredded ham) plus carnitas, for example, or ham, egg and chorizo. Pork forms the savory center of a fat, crusty sandwich, the bread smeared thickly with mayonnaise and sour cream and the whole plumped out with shredded cabbage and tomato. Grab a squeeze bottle and squiggle lines of salsa roja overtop.
