Fried Puerto Rican Food
As we roamed around outside of town near the beach (it’s an island, so there are a lot of beaches), we stopped at a roadside restaurant for some dinner. They fry almost everything. Pictured below is some of the food we ate. I can’t remember what it’s officially called.
This is fried plantain with crapmeat inside.
They said this was chicken on a stick, but I’m not sure… it might have been iguana.
I’ve never had crapmeat before. Looks yummy.
I’m sure it doesn’t compare to the real deal, but one of my favorite restaurants is La Isla which serves Puerto Rican cuisine.

Love that final shot!!
Thanks! a lot of people seem to gravitate to that one, but I feel like I didn’t do justice to the scene…
First pciture: EMPANADILLA. They’re are NOT made with fried plantains. What the hell is inside it? I have no clue. Looks like cassava to me.
Second picture. It’s a PINCHO. And yes; it looks like chicken. We do NOT eat iguanas.
I was just being silly with the iguana remarks… sorry if I offended you!
