  • At Sofrito Rico, there is no such thing as a combo meal. Every single item on the menu is priced accordingly to what you want. For starters if you choose mostly regular side orders, it can get expensive. I went for the A La Carte Entrée where I have the option to choose 1 protein and up to 3 sides, and each are priced individually. For the protein, I ordered the Pollo a la Parilla ($8.50) and for the sides, I chose Arroz con Gandules ($2), Tostones ($3), and Mofongo ($4.50). In addition, there is a small salad that comes with the entrée. The Pollo a la Parilla is a grilled chicken breast with sautéed onions. The meat taste like it has been charred and nicely grilled. The Arroz con Gandules is Puerto Rican rice with pigeon peas. It taste great, almost similar to Spanish rice but different because Puerto Rican rice has a more distinct quality flavor. This makes me want to have a second order of just only this rice. Now the next two sides are mainly Fried Green Plantains. Fried Green Plantains are very much a staple in Puerto Rican Cuisine. Unlike a Ripe Yellow Plantain that can be quickly fried and sweetened, Green Plantains have a more thicker skin and are starchy, which is why it cannot be eaten raw and it takes longer to cook. The Tostones differs slightly from the Mofongo in a way that it requires to be fried first, flattened, and then fried again twice. Whereas the Mofongo is fried one time, then mashed with garlic, and this is where chicharrones (crispy pork rinds) are incorporated to give Mofongo a bit of crunch. I tried the Tostones and Mofongo and both have a savory taste when you add the Garlic sauce. Since Green Plantains are very starchy, the texture can taste somewhat dry. When you bite into the Mofongo, it looks like mashed crumbles of Fried Green Plantains. With the Tostones after it has been fried twice, salt is immediately added to give flavor, and it's almost like snacking on French Fries. The only difference is that Fried Green Plaintains are a more healthier snack than Fried Potatoes, and I'm sure these will definitely fill you up.
