la fonda el jibarito
san juan, pr
website
our favorite meal in puerto rico! and cheapest (not counting mcdonald's although the chicken mcnuggets in PR are a million times better than those in the states - probably the dark meat, yum). about $9 for each entree. for each delicious, yummy, fantastic entree. service was awesome too, clearly catering toward tourists. "yes, order the rice too, that's how puerto ricans eat it - it's very good!" and it was.
i ordered the pasteles de masa - which are tamales made out of plaintains. mine was filled with pork and served with yellow rice. it looked like a pile of mush but tasted great. derek had the beef stew (pictured). tender, juicy pieces of meat in a rich and flavorful sauce. derek and i are now big fans of puerto rican cuisine and are trying to find a good place in new york.
