Red Hook Ballfields

At the Red Hook futbol/soccer/football fields on Saturdays and Sundays there is a grand collection of Latin American street food vendors.


Guatemala, Honduras, Salvador, Puerto Rico, Mexico and many others are represented by their expats hawking pupusas, tacos, huaraches, ceviche, elotes, and agua frescas.


MEXICO.


Revuelta (pork and cheese) and jalapeno and cheese pupusas with the standard curtido and pickled jalapenos. Salvadoran food is not characteristically spicy, like some other latin american cuisines. Instead of salsa, pupsas (round, hand packed, corn disks stuffed with different fillings) are served with curtido, a pickled cabbage/carrot mixture similar in some senses to German style sauerkraut. You can chomp on some pickled jalapenos if you are addicted to capsaicin.


Potato and chicken flautas and one carne asada taco from the Mexican truck. They were pretty good but too much lettuce.


This little girl is about to smash this Hummer into the junkyard!!! This is what my birthday party is going to look like.
