text: It is been said that It is the little things that count While true it neglects to mention how important the big things are Barrio Cafue is a perfect example of the limitations of this maximnnYou see Barrio Cafe nails the little things great art horchata served in empty Mexican coke bottles banana leafs on plates a fantastic mural pomegranate seeds in the guacamole a very enjoyable adobo flavored ketchup a hip ambience a smartly dressed wait staff all very well done and deserving of starsnnWhere the house of cards crumbles is when the food hits the mouth My cochinita pibil sandwich recommended by the waiter and a signature dish could only be described as bland Served atop two plodding pieces of thick French bread it made me long for the powerfully flavorful and soft bites at Tortas El Guero down the streetnnBC has been out for a while and has a reputation in the area as a winner maybe their food quality has slipped with a change of chef nnUntil the eats get better barrio cafe will remain to me just a place that gets the little things right nnTwo little stars
