It's a diverse offering that includes more than a few twists on popular classics. On the small plates menu, the green chili mac'n'cheese, served in a mini cast iron pan, is a standout, with Oaxacan cheese set off by fire-roasted poblano peppers. The papas en la latta— hand-cut fries with queso blanco and jalapeño, topped with barrel-smoked pork carnitas and molded via tin can into a small tower—is another great way to kick things off. Moving on, there are five variations of street tacos, among them a delicious steak rajas de poblano. Then come the entrees. The feijoada, the working-class Brazilian stew made from black beans and pork, is outstanding, as is the salmon escabeche, pan-seared and with pickled pep- pers, onions, and rice.
