La Caravana Description:
Salvadoran cuisine is not easy to find in Pasadena, but this narrow dining room is an authentic charmer. Here you can tuck into one of ten different thin, delicately crispy pupusas (we're partial to the pork or cheese and loroco flower) in an art-filled room with cozy booths illuminated by wrought iron chandeliers. The menu also offers pastelitos (little envelopes stuffed with meat), tamales and a wide selection of shrimp dishes, including a winner bathed in potent garlic sauce. Bistec encebollado is grilled sirloin with onions, tomatoes and peppers, and chicken gets the same treatment if desired. Order a tropical drink flavored with tamarind, papaya or even chocolate to round out a modestly priced adventure.
