Tostada in Bellflower

The plain Tostada at Omega Burgers is the open-faced, flat, hard-shell plate from the Mexican side of the menu. The order page lists it without a description, so the name is the fact: a tostada with no meat listed.

If you want to know what a tostada looks like here, the two meat versions are the guide. The Carne Asada Tostada is a corn tortilla hard shell topped with beans, cheddar cheese, lettuce, onions, tomatoes, and salsa plus steak, and the Chicken Breast Tostada is the same base with chicken. The plain Tostada is the one to order when you want the crunch and the toppings of a tostada without a meat protein, or for a kid who likes the crunchy shell.

Eat it at a table with a fork; it is not a walking item. The patio works, and so does a desk at Kaiser Bellflower if you order it for pickup.

For a family order in Bellflower, a couple of plain Tostadas alongside burgers puts something on the table that is not a bun. For a Cerritos College student, one Tostada and an order of Taquitos is a light lunch.
