| - I have been to Puerto Rico many times! And what is important to know is there are two kinds of food there, super fancy celebrity chef amazing food, and delicious, simple comforting minimally spiced country food. And when I say comfort food, I really mean comforting for the PR Locals that have grown up on it.
With that said, Sofrito Rico is exactly that simple, yummy PR Comfort food!! Don't go expecting something fancy! This is not fancy. The dining room is basically a small food court. Sofrito is the first business on the left side once you walk in.
I was SO EXCITED to see that this was here, based on another Yelp review from one of my Yelp friends, I knew I had to go! And soon! I love good PR Food! Let me tell you, this is the real deal!
I ordered....
tostones (twice cooked green plantains) with "mayo-ketchup" sauce. -YUM!!! And only $3!
relleno de papa - fried mashed potato ball with ground beef in the center.
Really good! Also only $3
bacalitos - crispy fried fishy yummy! Just have one, they are light and delicious.
and the slow cooked pork, with PR Rice, and Potato salad. Really good too!!
All fantastic, and reminiscent of my car adventures through out the countryside of Puerto Rico!
