Lechonera La Isla - City of New York

So good! I felt I had just landed in P.R everything was perfect rice with gandules some sweet platanos and pernil and chicharrón best place to go and have a great plate of food for real ??

This place is a Harlem Gem. Food never disappoints.

Amazing chicharron de credo with rice and beans. The mojo sauce is amazing. The right balance of acidity and sourness from the lime and the perfect amount of garlic. So so so happy with this place.

We rode bikes from Central Park looking for an authentic Puerto Rican spot. We found this place online and decided to check it out. When we pulled up I was shocked how small the place was. Only had a counter to eat at. We almost left to be honest, but after a long bike ride, we had to try it. The food was amazing!! Fresh, crispy, delicious and fast! The guy at the counter cuts the chucks of crispy pork right in front of you and always add the garlic sauce. Definitely will be back when I return to NYC.

Regular Puerto Rican food empanadas were okay they don't have rellenos we papa what a
