In Mexico, and many parts of the world, roasted turkey is mainly served during the holiday season. Imagine a place where shaved slices of juicy roasted turkey are served on a soft telera<\/em> smothered with avocado and spicy rajas<\/em>. This place exists, it\u2019s located in the heart of downtown Mexico City and, here, you can devour a turkey torta<\/em> during any month of the year.<\/p>\n

El Rey del Pavo has been in business for over a century. It was founded in 1910 by Ram\u00f3n Avellana, a Spanish man from Gironella, a small town just North of Barcelona. Ram\u00f3n moved to Mexico in 1906 and brought with him homey recipes, which are still used in the kitchen, and the idea of charcoal roasting the turkeys. The first location was at Palma Street #19. After moving locations twice, Ram\u00f3n\u2019s nephew, Carlos Moreno, is in charge of the restaurant’s new location, just a couple blocks down, at Palma Street #32 in Mexico City\u2019s historic center.<\/p>\n

\"slicing<\/p>\n

Walking in you\u2019ll see an open kitchen and lined up are the torteros<\/em> and taqueros<\/em> making turkey tortas and tacos by the dozen. There are lots of options here ranging from turkey breast in adobo, thigh, and turkey chicharr\u00f3n. The restaurant is simple, lots of wooden tables with blue leather chairs that make for a diner-like feel. Most of the people who go in for a bite have been visiting the place for years and bring different generations of the family to try it.<\/p>\n

Each time I visit, I\u2019ll start off with a taco and end with a torta, accompanied by a hot bowl of turkey broth to dip. It\u2019s hard to leave this place without a takeout bag to enjoy for dinner.<\/p>\n
