Sabor A Honduras

Being that I just moved to Austin and I am Honduran-​American I was looking for a taste of home. This place is awesome. I tried their pupusas and pastelitos which are my favorite and what can I say! It felt like it was my mom cooking it. Big portions for cheap prices. I only spent $ 4 on both things. The lady was very nice and the food was fresh and hot! My place to go when I’m feeling homesick.
Just don’t pay any attention to how sketchy the location is. I just get my food to go.

Great food. We got the desayuno, a couple of pupusas, baleadas especial, and the tacos catrachos. As a big fan of pupusas, these definitely stood up. The owner was chopping up fresh vegetables when I arrived so it made me feel a lot better.
It’s in the parking lot of a convenience store, so not the best location, but they did have covered seating which was a major plus with the sun out. We bought a topo Chico and Mexican Coke from said convenience store. We definitely plan on going back.

Talk about diamond in the rough– this no frills food truck behind the scary riverside HEB is totally worth getting mugged for.
The desayuno meal and the pupusa is incredible and super cheap! The desayuno meal is scrambled eggs, avocado slices, refried black beans, this weird white sauce, a baked plantain and a tortilla. The pupusa was like a tortilla pita with some kid of sweet meat or bean filling– there’s nothing that I could compare it to really, but it was incredible! I could eat those plantains and pupusas for the rest of my damn life.
They do to-​go orders so call ahead so you don’t have to wait! It’s located right next to some sketchy convenient store with bars on the windows. The food is worth the risk of getting mugged so just go!
I will be back!

I’ve tried several things but what keeps bringing me back for more are the $ 2 baleadas sencillas! Simple ingredients with complex flavors. It’s a larger than average home made flour tortilla, beans, semi-​sweet cream that’s perfectly balanced out with a salty cheese. Mmmm

I just found this food truck earlier today with my fiancé and wow I am so glad I did. My parents are from Honduras and since I grew up half of my life over there I get a little homesick sometimes. I was wanting to eat something that reminded of home and the food definitely did. I had the Pupusas con chicharron y repollo and drank some horchata… everything was great and the girl at the window was super nice… I highly recommend.

baleadas especiales with a banana drink r a MUST when u eat here… good food n good people…

Very friendly. Fast. I had the baleadas and I wasn’t disappointed. Overall very good and nice people.

Don’t miss out! It place is a must stop for me each time I return to Austin. My go-​to dish is their Baleadas (I get them ‘sencilla’ or without the avocado, egg, and cream) which is just a bean and cheese flour tortilla for $ 2. They will make it when you order, so pretty cool to have them pat out a tortilla while you wait. Definitely good food.
Also, very nice young lady that has been there every time I’ve been is worth mentioning. She’s super sweet and will tell you as much about the food etc as you want to hear.

Freshly made Pastelios were worth the wait… brush up on your spanish for orders.

Although this trailer has been around for more than three years, totally missed it the ffew times I’ve been to this lot. Perhaps I was distracted by the tacos at Ley’s nearby, but this Honduran (!) trailer should not be overlooked.
While there are several Honduran restaurants in town, this is the only trailer I’m aware of. Since our original plan was to get some goat tacos at La Movida bar in the same lot, we decided to just taste a $ 2 baleada. What the heck is a baleada you ask? It’s like a quesadilla, filled with bean paste and crema, no queso. It’s simple, yet delicious, and is elevated into grandma-​cooking territory by the handmade flour tortilla that’s stretched and cooked to order. The tortillas are thick, soft as a pillow and rather divine. If only my own bed was as comfortable as the baleada.
After having something so surprisingly ethereal, how could we possibly pass up on ordering a pupusa as well? The chicharrón pupusa actually has pulled pork and the full flavor you only get from a long-​cooked pig. It is an exceptional pupusa, and is complemented by a heap of pickled-​pink cabbage, if you ask nicely.
The owner is incredibly friendly and eager to describe her offerings in detail, in perfect English. She’s already sold me on the tacos catrachos for next time.

To start with, I’m creating the posting for this Honduran food trailer I found the other day. It’s located at the corner of Elmont and Pleasant Valley on the East side. It’s a little trailer eatery decked out in the Honduran colors of blue and white. It shares a parking lot with a gas station.
randomly found ‘Sabor de Honduras’ the other day when riding my bike. The food was delicious and made by hand in front of your eyes. It’s a no frills place and the eating arrangement is composed of crappy plastic chairs and tables… oh yeah, there’s one wooden picnic table that resembles the Honduran flag.
There’s a young woman named Jessica that works there and is very helpful. She noticed that I was not ‘from round those parts’ and promptly offered her help in interpreting (and appreciating) her food. She’s very forthcoming with recommendations and general advice on Honduran culture.
We tried the ‘baleadas’ as well as the flautas and had a Honduran soda pop and horchata. The food was simple but packed lots of flavor. The baleada is a staple Honduran dish and can be enjoyed at any hour of the day.
So, my advice… TRY THIS PLACE NOW before it moves to a new parking lot. Price wise, not as cheap as one would imagine for a trailer (not a hip one with ‘hip’ prices). I think we paid around $ 15 for two plates and two drinks.
Next time I go — which will be soon — I’ll try the chicken as Jessica advised us to.
