"Soy amante de experiencias culinarias y en Guadalajara hay tortas ahogadas buenas, pero las tortas Cecy son una joya totalmente. La salsa en su punto, la carne jugosa, el picante de ese que se disfruta. Si no vienes con tanta hambre para una torta y un taco ahogados, que son un must, la opción de las tostadas son maravillosas."
