Chanclas poblanas · Puebla
A split roll filled with seasoned pork or chorizo, lettuce, onion and avocado, then drowned in a warm guajillo broth until the bread gives way. Eaten with a fork, never a hand.
The name means sandal, which is roughly what the flattened, sauce-soaked roll looks like on the plate. Chanclas are a Puebla speciality that almost never travels: a pambazo-style bread is filled with pork or chorizo, lettuce, onion and avocado, then ladled with a thin guajillo sauce until it collapses. They are usually served in pairs. Antojitos Tomy on 5 Poniente runs a milder version at about fifty-five pesos, and Antojitos Mellos out in Barrio de los Remedios serves them next to its molotes and pelonas.
