Escandón·$$
Chalupas Poblanas
MXN55.00
Thick corn masa cups topped with shredded chicken, crema, and salsa.

MXN35.00
Fried tortilla base topped with shredded chicken, tangy green salsa, onion, and cheese.
Tip: Try both red and green versions. The salsa choice completely changes the flavor profile.

Las Chalupas Poblanas
Roma·$
Chalupas with Chorizo and Potato
MXN40.00
Fried tortilla topped with spiced chorizo and cooked potato, salsa, and cheese.

Chalupas with Oaxaca Cheese and Chorizo
MXN38.00
