Cemitas y Tortas La Poblanita — Restaurant in Puebla

We tried the enmoladas and cemita with milanesa de puerco. The cemita had a bit too much cheese, so I would ask for a 1/2 portion of it next time with salsa on the side to make it a bit more moist. The enmoladas were delicious but I wish the mole was served a bit hotter as my plate was room temperature. Service was a bit slow and unfriendly but I can’t knock them too bad as it was pretty busy on a Sunday. Pro tip: ask for pápalo on the side (super strong tasting cilantro/anise type herb) to see if you like it before committing to a bunch on your cemita. I don’t mind the flavor, but to some it tastes like soap. Overall, a great place to try cemitas and other traditional poblano dishes...

We shared a cemita de la poblanita between 2 of us and it was more than enough for us both and good value. Neither of us liked the sandwich. It only tasted of the sauteed peppers and parsley. You couldn't taste the chicken or any other ingredients, and there was far too much cheese. Without any sauce it was really bland. This was the only cemita we tried in Puebla and we were told this was the place to try it, so we were very disappointed, but maybe cemitas are all like this?.....
