Achiote Cochinita Pibil — Restaurant in Chiapas

🐖“Oink” 🐖

I wonder if “it’s time to pull the pork” has ever been said by headquarters when an undercover cop’s cover gets blown. I also wonder why despite its name, pulled pork is so good at bringing people together.

These are the musings that sauntered through my mind, as I sat in a semi-enchanted state whilst post burrito at Achiote. Similar to how Zeus took on many different animal guises to impregnate humans whilst siring Ancient Greek heroes, this place does one thing (pulled pork if you haven’t guessed) in various different forms. Instead of Achilles, Asclepius, and Aeneas however, we have tortitas, tacos, and burritos. I will leave you to be the judge of which is more impactful after you visit this delightful place.

Perhaps, I will birth my own half pig demigod once this meal has passed through me, as the only explanation for the ravaging satiety engendered by this meal could be that the cook was a deity attempting to inseminate me.

This place is da bomb dot com. I highly recommend the gordita and the taco. The gordita is small, but it's on a very fresh, warm, thick, two-tone corn tortilla, with cream, queso, and pickled red onions. The taco is on a thin, black corn tortilla, and also has pickled red onions. The cochinita pibil is to die for. It's juicy and drippy and you'll end up sucking the juice off of your fingers. She will serve the food with a flight of habanero salsas of varying degrees of spicy. Cash only and no wifi but you'll be so busy eating you won't notice that you don't have...

Top 3 best tacos in San Cris, and not even a local food specialty! Simple, unpretentious, ridiculously addictive, and very cheap! Only meat, and one kind only, in several different delivery/consumption methods. Vegetarian friends can order quesadillas and load them up with the different salsas! Beware the salsas though, they can be hot!
