So we're slowly but surely fillin in that gap of Latin eats in town. Until a few years back, beyond el Rinconcito Salvadoreno, how many other authentic Latino joints did we have? And why hasnt Rinconcito been up in VIA yet? But while most of the taquerias in town seem to be centered around downtown or East Van, a coworker of mine told me about this cool joint close to me in Burnaby as she cooked tacos for us some time ago (there's a Peruvian joint by Burnaby General Hospital as well, name escapes me). Like Que Pasa, el Comal has been around for some time (10 years) mainly as a tortilla producer/distributor but they just opened up shop as a eat in cafe a few months ago. You can get all the Mexican goodness you can expect to eat in-house and/or shop for Latin groceries and take home some oven fresh tortillas, tacos, tamales and more.
