Out-of-town visitors are the best excuse to play $40 A Day in your own town. (If you don't know what $40 A Day is SHAME on you!) Last week I took a friend to El Charro, home of the chimichanga. She had the Topopo salad, I had the Bahia tacos. And yes, I ate it all.
Established in 1922, El Charro Café of Tucson, Arizona is The Nation's Oldest Mexican Restaurant in continuous operation by the same family, featuring traditional Sonoran cultural style and innovative Tucson style Mexican Food, El Charro is truly as Gourmet Magazine wrote: "A Taste Explosion".
Topopo salad: Salad of fresh mixed greens, seasonal fruits, avocado, and grilled chicken stacked on a crispy tortilla wafer dressed with mango vinaigerette.
Bahia tacos: Three warm corn tortillas, two filled with grilled white fish, and one filled with grilled Sonoran steak. All topped with fresh pico de gallo, shredded cabbage, and EXTRA LIMES of course!
