Cochinita Power

Mexico City


Yucatecan snacks such as panuchos (refried tortilla topped with shredded pork), cochinita (shredded pork) tacos and sopa de lima (lime soup with tortilla strips) are served with pickled onion and a variety of fiery habanero salsas. Like any fast-food joint worth its salt, Cochinita Power keeps things tasty, simple and cheap.
