You won’t find many international chain eateries near the border of the Bronx neighborhoods of Mount Eden and Claremont, where the B line stops at 170th St./Grand Concourse. Like most in this area, these three shops are all independently owned and operated.

This comes in handy, because even though Mexican specialities like sesame-seed topped sandwiches called cemitas ($8), or meat and cheese-topped tostadas (three for $10), are easily transportable, they’re always better just off the griddle than out of styrofoam.
