<div style="RIGHT: auto">I went to the El Comalito restaurant where the Rancho Grande used to be (next to Shagge). Had a couple of cheese, meat, and bean pupusas; They about $1.50 each, and that includes the curtido (pickled veggies) and salsa. Good comfort food. Had horchata (ground rice drink) with my meal; not bad, but I have to confess I like the horchata at Pollo Fiesta better. Also had an ensalada drink, which I'd never had; it's juice with pieces of sliced apples, grapes, and other fruits. They have mainly pupusas and a couple of other Salvadorean entres', also a few American items (burgers, etc). Prices were reasonable, service was good, and the staff was friendly. With the Royal Palm, that makes 2 new restaurants for the area! </div>

<div style="RIGHT: auto">By the way, I was talking to a taxi driver the other day, he said he'd heard that an Indian restaurant was due to open in Hyattsville soon; anyone else know about that? Until it does, if you're in the mood for Indian food, I'd recommend Jewel of India in the Hillandale shopping center. They have a great lunch buffet and the Washington Post gave them a fantastic review 2 weeks ago. (and if you're like me and don't drive, you can catch the C8 bus from College Park Metro; it isn't a long ride and <VAR id=yui-ie-cursor></VAR>it goes right past the shopping center). </div>
