Border Town in Greenpoint Is the Next Contender for NYC's Best Flour Tortillas
"I wanted to make what I wanted to eat. I don't know if I perfected it, but I made that version of what I remember."
"You already know us for our mornings; see what else we can do."
"This is for our neighbors. These are our people. I don't care about answering to anyone else aside from them."
Chef Jorge Aguilar recreated Sonoran-style flour tortillas emphasizing thinness, slight chew, high-quality grain, and pork lard. The Border Town pop-ups sold out during the pandemic, prompting Aguilar and co-owner Amanda Rosa to open a sit-down restaurant with co-owner Ben Turley and head bartender Patrick Bradley. Border Town opened January 16 at 189 Nassau Avenue in Greenpoint and currently offers table-service dinner only because the kitchen lacks gas. The space is walk-in only, neighborhood- and family-friendly, has larger tables for groups, and offers $15 drinks to maintain affordability.
