Used to love those Saturday morning tortas filled with crema and jalapeno but don't live in Joco any more.   Tried a spread of crema and jalapeno and the spread was good but didn't penetrate the torta like the ones I bought.   Special torta or preparation?

At the risk of starting another "Costco Favorites" forum.....I think you might also like the giant Tassos olives stuffed with garlic & jalapenos they carry......amazing. They seem to be out of stock a lot....

Second the motion for those olives.  Just put the jar between two halves of a telera and there you are: torta!

Thanks jokers but simple as these "sandwiches" sound .... they were special.  Saturday only and gone by 10-11

 

I hope that wasn't a glass jar of olives I have no interest in ..... glass or olives

 

You've missed a treat

Please, what is the difference between a telera and a bolillo?

The new coffee shop/restaurant at the former Mom's Restaurant in Riberas has many kinds of torta's and they also have the best lasagna too, also many desserts. Their name is El Kiosko and they have a "Games" theme. They have lots of games you can play like Rumicube, Sequence, etc and have nice tables and comfortable chairs.
They just brought in tamales today and they were also very good. They even serve beer & wine.
Highly recommend.

Telera is a soft bread. It is consumed in central Mexico, to make Tortas. Bolillo is a crusty bread. It is consumed in the state of Jalisco and is used to make Lonches. And yet, there is a bread called Birote consumed mainly in GDL  -Superlake sell it-. This bread is too crispy, but thicker and a little salty.
