Cantina Feliz’s mushroom huarache is a must

The flatbread is topped with manchego crema, jalapeno, requeson, truffle, queso, and caramelized onions.

Seven years ago, Tim Spinner and Brian Sirhal took the leap from Jose Garces' Distrito restaurant and opened Cantina Feliz, replacing the short-lived bistro (Alison two) that took over from a once-popular Mexican joint (Marita's). Cantina Feliz spawned La Calaca Feliz in Fairmount and Taqueria Feliz in Manayunk — all done up in Day of the Dead decor and delivering familiar south-of-the-border flavors along with sparks of ambitiousness. Cantina Feliz's mushroom huarache ($10.95) is a must — a flatbread topped with manchego crema, jalapeno, requeson, truffle, queso, and caramelized onions.
