After checking out the sales at American Rag, I went a couple doors down to grab a bite to eat at the newly open restaurant, Tinga. I had a little trouble finding it since there wasn’t a sign above the doorway, but the scents from the kitchen guided me through the right doors.

I had trouble choosing from the menu of Latin inspired items with unique ingredients. I decided on the spicy pork tacos with a horchata. The horchata was creamier than I was used to and probably would have liked, but it was a great companion to the very spicy tacos. The menu warned me of the spice level, but I thought I could handle it. The caramelized onions and Mexican cheese balanced out the spices and flavors of the tender shredded pork well. On the side was warm, fresh tortilla chips sprinkled with Mexican cheese. This meal definitely hit the spot for lunch. I will be making a trip back soon very soon.
