Pupuseria La Bendición de Dios — Restaurant in Brandon

I have been so excited to try their pupusas but I always work past the time they're open. Until today, when I was finally able to make it there by 620. I had looked forward to this all day and even bragged to friends I was finally going to make it there on time! I pull up, lights are on, open sign is on and the hours posted on the sign say they're open until 8, perfect!

Ok, cards on the table, I've lived in Manitoba for some 34 years and I had never gotten out to Brandon. To say I was shocked they had a Pupusa shop is an understatement, I never imagined Brandon to be so... culturally diverse! This is a small little place with only 3-4 tables, but the pupusas these fine people are turning out are the real deal! Plus the price point compared to any Winnipeg pupusas shops makes me upset that they're not valuing their product enough. Supple, round discs of everything that is good represented on a plate.
