- Breakfast swap! - Breakfast swap!

- Breakfast swap. - Break-- (laughs)

(upbeat Latin music)
- I actually have not had Salvadorian breakfast before.
- I'm half-Mexican and half-Salvadorian
but I did grow up eating mostly Salvi food.
- I am Mexican on both sides of my family,
and I grew up eating mostly traditional Mexican dishes.
- I got chilaquiles for Mexican side,
and I got desayuno tipico for you.
- For us, Mexican is chilaquiles.
which, that's how I like,
refried beans on the side.
- Oh!
- Yum!
- That looks bomb with the queso.
- I have in front of me this amazing, beautiful array.
- A Salvi breakfast has more variety, as you can see.
- Yeah, like you have your, like, little components.
- This is like a freakin' party.
- I don't know man.
It's calling my name.
- When you asked me
what my favorite breakfast Mexican food is,
that's the immediately first thing I think of
when I can't even think of a second choice.
- Oh, okay.
- Everyone's gonna hate me
but I personally don't like the plátano.
- Just like switch back, just kidding.
(both laugh)
- This is arroz y frijoles, and we call that casamiento.
- I'm like, like marriage.
- Yes! - Like together.
- You ready?
- Yes.
- Okay I'm gonna try the chilaquiles.
- You gonna go first?
- Mmm.
- That's bomb.
- This is bomb.
- It's bomb, right? - Yeah.
- So good.
- Yeah, honestly this is good too.
But like, that's my life right there.
- You can't go wrong with chilaquiles.
- You literally can't go wrong with tortillas.
- Is it spicy, or no? - Oh my god, this is spicy.
- My body was made by chilaquiles.
- This is what I was raised on.
- My body's the tortilla.
(Pablo laughs)
It's just masa slapped together.
(both laugh)
- Oh my god, I love chilaquiles.
- Something I really appreciate about either
Central American, or like Caribbean
cultures is that y'all utilize the plátano a lot.
I don't know how I went so long without plátano frito
in my life.
- Oh my god, can I try some of your beans?
- Yeah.
- See, like, - They're good.
- Mmm.
- The only thing that I would not eat on here
would be the platano frito.
- Let me just help you, like seriously.
Mmm.
- That's actually better than I thought.
- Yeah, it's bomb.
- Wow, I can't tell what I like a lot cause I mixed it all.
- You want some of your-- - I will try some of that.
You gotta give it back. (laughs)
- Maybe.
- This right here is odd.
- Why? - Chilaquiles with platano?
- It's a new casamiento
between Salvis and Mexicans.
- Mmm, I'm feelin that.
- Mmm, I mixed the crema with the plátano.
Ooh, that's good.
- I love chilaquiles.
I also grew up with a lot of Mexican folks too.
I never met a chilaquile that I didn't like.
That's what I always say.
- Hey, save me half of that plátano.
- When I go home, this is literally,
exactly what my grandma gives me.
- Okay, you need to invite me.
- I don't know which breakfast is better at this point
'cause they're both really, really good.
- I feel like if you're Latino,
and you have any kind of breakfast,
like, it's gonna be bomb regardless.
- I mean they're both so different, right?
Chilaquiles are just straight salty--
- Chile.
And Salvadorian breakfast is just like, the works.
- Yeah.
- This is bomb.
Mexican food;
you already know that I'm a groupie for Mexican food.
I'm just like, I'm here for it.
I'm here for all food really.
- And I feel like I haven't had the chance
to fall in love with Salvi food yet,
but I think this is my moment.
- We all have, like, our traditions,
and we just (bleep) love it.
- I appreciate all of the flavors coming together
to just make a fiesta in my mouth.
