"El Rico Tinto, Jackson Heights by Diane Shaw. Though it says 'Bakery' on the awning, don't be fooled, this place is SO much more. El Rico Tinto serves Mexican and Colombian staples but with finessed details you don't usually see. Crunchy flautas arrive with a beautiful heap of fresh veg, queso fresco and an artful smattering of crema. Their carnitas and short rib tacos are some of the best in the neighborhood. If you're vegetarian, this is your spot. They have meatless versions of all their most popular menu items. Go for brunch and get the chilaquiles, fresh pastries and a fresh squeezed juice. It's run by two brothers, the warm-smiled Victor handles front of house while Fernando makes the deliciousness happen in the kitchen."
