Ah, the "Little Strawberry"! The food is so inexpensive and gosh-darn homey that you might think you're back in 1968, the year Night of the Living Dead premiered. There are plenty of winners here: the carne asada taquitos, which are served with fresh-off-the-griddle homemade corn tortillas; the big, puffy chile relleno; or a Cubana torta, a Hispanic answer to panini. Wash it all down with a licuado (fruit shake made with fresh fruit) or one of the jugos (juices). If you're looking for something lighter, the pico de gallo is the way to go: a fruit salad seasoned with chile powder! Muy delicioso. The other "little strawberries" are not connected with this one.
