About Restaurant, Latino, pupusas con queso (pupusas, cheese)
Cheese pupusas swap the bean filling for melted cheese, typically a soft fresh cheese like quesillo.

The result is richer, creamier, and more calorie-dense than bean pupusas. Cheese pupusas are often combined with bean or pork versions in a mixed order, and the curtido served alongside adds a fermented crunch that cuts the richness.
