i guess Gorditas, since I don't even know what a Sopes is. Although I've been on a chicken/cheese quesadilla kick recently.
"Mexican" food is kind of weird--you can go spend 5-6 bucks at Taco Bell, or go to El Dorado/Loco/Peco/Rojo/whatever and get the same stuff, more of it, served to you with free chips and salsa, for about the same price, and about the same speed [almost every Mexican restaurant I've been to delivers the food really quickly.]

Ok, a sope is a flat tortila (round but heavier) that is fried and any meat product is added at top of it, with sour cream, avocado, cheese, lettuce, tomato, and onion.
A Gordita is a two thick tortilas stuffed with any meat product and extras and then closed.
:roll: YUM

From his description above it kind of sounds like a tostada
And I dont eat Taco Bell because its not mexican food its trash (especially here in Cali with all the illegal mexican immigrants knowing how to cook)
So I guess I go with the sope.

Yes, instead of all these fancy diet plans and pills all anybody really needs to lose weight is a full-size picture of DLF in their kitchen.

IF you dont know that they are go to your local favorite Mexican restaurant and order one of each they are usually cheap, well in Chicago they are priced at $1.50 each. So go ahead and try them with a drink of Horchata and tell me you opinion. :wink:

well, a tostada is the hard round tortilla-like base, but the actual food is a real chalupa by the description of a sope it sounds to be a Chalupa made by real Mexicans!!! Not that Taco Bell shite!!!

It's DLF.....so, Dragon wings were necessary, as well as hairy-hobbit Frodo toes. Although you can't notice the toes as much.

I'd go with the Chalupa if your already thinking of a Gordita, since they are basically the same thing with one having a harder tortilla/texture than the other.
