Pasillo de Humo
Pasillo de Humo, Mercado 20 de Noviembre
The charcoal-grilled meat corridor inside the November 20 Market, where you select, weigh, and grill meat on the spot, then wrap it in tortillas at the dining stalls.
Located inside the 20 de Noviembre Market, two blocks south of the main square, this entire corridor is filled with charcoal smoke as vendors grill meat in front of you. The dining style is to first select your meat, weigh it, and once grilled, take it to the adjacent dining stalls to roll your own tacos with tortillas, grilled spring onions, salsa, and avocado. Options include cured beef, dried pork, chorizo, and ribs. About 3/4 kg is enough for two people, costing only a few dollars. One source records the operating hours as daily 10:00-17:00; it is best to confirm before setting off.
