Nice to see some new shots.

I have been conducting my own informal taco comparison between La Batalla and Mi Pueblo down the street (and at my pace it's gonna take a while...). So far it's very close overall, but that chorizo at La Batalla has definitely got 'em beat- more flavorful, not as greasy, and beautifully caramelized on the grill. I think my favorite filling is the cecina, though. Sometimes I'll get a craving and make the trip just for that.

The La Batalla chorizo is definitely excellent. Which is why their huevos rancheros are fantastic, because its got a lot of that in it.

And apparently there's ANOTHER Mexican restaurant that just opened up in Bergenfield, also on Washington, thats somewhat more upscale that I need to check out.
