Cardenas, giving new meaning to “Grand Opening”
I like Cardenas and I like the idea of them having a store in San Bernardino, but it has been a year now and I think it is time for a new sign.
Anyhow, if you have never been to Cardenas you should go. It is very different than your typical American grocery store. Catering to a Latin clientele it is laid out differently in that you will find a whole section dedicated to tortillas. It has always kind of been interesting to see a tortilla making machine in action. At Cardenas you can watch it go all the way from a corn kernel to tortilla, without even having to watch a dumb video (maseca!!), although no free samples.
At Cardenas you will see your typical sections such as fruits, vegetable, and meat; but the content will not look the same. I never knew you could eat s cactus until I walked into a Mexican grocery store. Also I never had to dodge a pinata before I entered a Mexican grocery store.
Well, if you ever see a Cardenas grocery store in your area I encourage you to go inside. If you do please get me a pumpkin empanada, they are really good.
