Yet another GrubHub choice for me. They are pretty freaking awesome.
I typically order their Tres Golpes breakfast. Traditionally, it consists of Mangú con salamí, queso, y huevos. Pero, this place offers a 4th option (so you get to choose 3 out of the 4), in which you can replace any of those items with longaniza. That's sausage, for the gringos out there… Or Lil' Mama fans. (Eggs, bacon, grits… SAUSAGE! But I digress.)
Today, for the first time in life, I tried a dessert called Habichuela Con Dulce. Habichuela means Beans (red kidney beans), Dulce means 'sweet'. So this dish is essentially a thin, uber-sweet porridge of sorts, made with kidney-beans. Sounds pretty jacked up, right? Like, BEANS?!?! In a dessert??? Even though I grew up around a gajillion Dominicans, been to their houses, and been to their restaurants in Paterson… I had never heard of (or paid attention) to this dish on their menus. I saw the light when I was watching a BuzzFeed video that showed different Caribbean people trying each other's desserts (go watch that, it's awesome AF). Well the Habichuela thing looked so awesome, I decided to get a bowl of it with my breakfast. And it was delish.
As far as all Latino food that I've had in the Greater Paterson, it's good. Not SPECTACULAR, but it satisfies my urges. They make some wicked empanadas, by the way…Just thought I'd add that in, at the last second. Okay, I'm done. #ImFakeDominicanNow #HabichuelaConDulce #TodoLosDias #ItsLit
