Have you ever eaten so much hot salsa before your meal that your tongue is slightly smoldering when your dish arrives? I try to avoid that but sometimes it&#8217;s hard to resist the painful pull of the chile. Ah, ah, agua, por favor!<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think you might have a chile eating problem.&#8221; &#8220;No, I can stop whenever I want, I just don&#8217;t want to.

The tortilla was very lightly fried, and though I&#8217;d have preferred a bit more time in the hot oil, it beats the plain old tortilla underneath you mostly get nowadays. Unfortunately the eggs were overcooked and a bit tough, which kinda detracts from the plate. The salsa ranchera was chunky (as you can see) and sparse, but still decent. Average rice and beans, though they get a few extra points for the use of queso cotija. At $4 the plate, it&#8217;s more than acceptable for a bite to eat, even if a bit unremarkable. And yet, despite the challenges of remarking on the unremarkable, it looks like I did it! Hurray for mediocre reviews!<\/p>\n<p>La Que Si Llena<br \/>\n2630 Cesar Chavez Ave.<br \/>\nEast LA, 90063<br \/>\n323.261.1864<\/p>\n<p>PS.
