That’s too bad. Deport them all,//

Ok I sort of take that back. Some Salvadoran food is pretty good. I do like papusas (if made with rice flour instead of corn) and the national sandwich “pan con pavo” (a super fancy turkey sandwich) is pretty good but it gets old quickly.

When I was down in El Salvador the majority of restaurants were all American with the exception of some smaller salvadoran places that basically served papusas, pan con pavo sandwiches, meat empanadas and soups. Of course this was inland. Down at the coast you get a lot of seafood which is almost mexican style but not even close to being spicy.

When my wife’s aunt was staying with us after my father-in-law passed away I was doing the cooking and she was raving about the food saying I should open a restaurant down in El Salvador since they had nothing like what I was making.

The food is very basic which is ok if it’s your thing. I was hoping for stuff a little more exotic myself.
