La Union Restaurant & Pupuseria — Restaurant in Franklin

What an amazing addition to our town ! It’s very clean and the service is excellent. The food is 10/10 for me !! Here is a breakdown of what we have loved.

1. pupusas - it’s a delicious corn meal patty stuffed with cheese ! They add meat, spinach , zucchini or beans . The slaw that comes with it pairs perfectly with the flavors . It comes with a red or green sauce .

2. Baleadas !! - it’s a flour tortilla with beans and cheese . The flour tortilla is soft and fresh! They taste homemade 🙌 You can add meat and eggs to it. It’s an excellent breakfast option .
