In contrast to her chic new York neighbors, El Huarache may look a little worn-in with her ragged floral tablecloths and rickety chairs. But the cooking is a force to be reckoned with. The "Huarache," so-called because it looks like a sandal, is a sort of pizza made of fried cornmeal dough, topped with steak, beans, cheese, shredded lettuce—and pigskin, if you're so inclined. Fresh watermelon juice offers a light, sweet complement to the belt-bursting meal.
