Pupusas are a popular street food from El Salvador and are regarded as the country’s national dish. These thick corn tortillas are stuffed with ingredients like cheese, refried beans and chicharron, and cooked on a griddle. They’re best enjoyed with a curtido (cabbage slaw) and tomato salsa slathered on top. Affordable, tasty and perfect when you’re on the go, you’re going to want more than just one pupusa.
Here are some of the best places you can get pupusas in Toronto.
