Adam Richman (Man Vs. Food on the Travel Channel) did an episode in Phoenix, stopping for a sandwich at Los Reyes de la Torta.
So while on vacation in Phoenix, we headed out to this Mexican sandwich shop.
Of course, I had to order the Torta Del Rey. The King Sandwich. Ham, melted cheese, pork sirloin, breaded beef, sausage, chorizo and
eggs. Who could ask for more? Who could get anymore on the sandwich?
Open Wide and Say Ahhhhh!
This was going to take some work on my part. It was man versus food. Face versus “the King.” Del Rey. Mano a Torta.
It put up a pretty good fight. Things got a little messy, but in the end . . .
I can't believe I ate the WHOLE thing!
Doesn’t look much like the MyPlate food recommendation does it? My GPS (gastronomic preference system) warned me to make a U-turn if at all possible. But I couldn’t turn away from that sandwich! I almost got lost in the middle of the meal!
I highly recommend the torta del Rey. Just be sure to bring your A-game appetite.
