Prepare your maximum hunger and go to carnitas El Chulo, a street stall that sells tacos de trompa, maciza, chamorro, costilla, lengua or surtida, among other specialties. Undoubtedly the most requested is the gordita de carnitas, a monumental preparation that you have to try at least once.
Let’s start with the most acclaimed: the gordita. It is a dough wheel filled with a very good portion of meat (the one you like the most), cheese, onion and cilantro; you add the sauce as you wish. It weighs about a kilo and a half! It costs 💵$150 and you can eat it by yourself or order it to share with up to four people, it all depends on how hungry you are.
Although the giant gorditas are already the perfect excuse to visit this place, you should know that you can also try the tacos in their classic form. They cost💵 $23 and you’ll love to approach the salsas and pickles table for that extra touch of flavor.
El Chulo carnitas stand is located on the corner of📍Insurgentes and Querétaro in Roma Norte; just a few steps from the Sonora Metrobus station. Its service hours are 🕛Monday to Saturday from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Do you feel like trying these gigantic preparations?
