Sabor Salvadoreño– located next to an Ace Hardware and in an area of non-descript small groupings of mini strip malls in the suburbs of Beaverton, and very minimalist and functional but a secret gem of pupusas… and their tvs of Latin shows just suck you in too. We didn’t know what the cases were, but we liked to pretend as we watched Caso Cerrado
They look the same, but the pupusas below, at $2 a piece, are from left to right, one filled with cheese+flower, pork, and then the chicken. They melt in your mouth, and you can top them with a cabbage slaw or salsa to balance them out. And, be prepared to be feeling pretty full and satisfied afterward… and that you will spend a little longer then expected eating because you won’t be able to tear your eyes off the TV.
Thanks to Clarklewis Sous Chef Kyo Koo for pointing out this secret. Another Salvadorian place in Beaverton, Gloria’s Secret Cafe, also has pupusas but I have not had them there to compare (they don’t have the cheese+flower one which was my favorite, though they do present them as part of platter instead of ordering individually alone), but Gloria’s space is tiny and despite the name is not as secret at Sabor Salvadoreno…
