We stopped here for a meal this weekend and were especially looking to finding some fresh yucca. We arrived and were greeted then seated. We ordered appetizers and browsed the menu.
We ordered an empanada and a canoa for starters. The empanada was hot, flakey flour crust and a full of ground beef. The canoa was huge...filled with ground beef and covered with hot melted cheese. Both were delicious!
For our main entre we both ordered the pernil. To our delight they also offered the yucca we were craving. We rounded out the order with fried sweet plantains. This was not intended to be a weight watcher meal.
The food arrived after we had eaten our fill of the appetizers. The pernil was steaming hot and seasoned just right. The plantains were sweet and flavorful. The yucca were...heavenly. It is so hard to find good, properly prepared yucca in the valley. It was golden, steaming hot and crispy on the outside. It was simply perfect.
So unable to bear leaving perfectly prepared yucca behind for the indeterminate future, we ordered another platter of pernil to go. This brings me to the portions. They were excellent. On leaving we departed with four to-go boxes. It looked like we had been grocery shopping. The food was just as good the next day after reheating.
So it is easy to recommend PRLG to anyone craving island food. We look forward to the next chance we'll have to stop by and sample some more of their excellence offerings.
