hola senor pollo

*
one of the best meals i had while backpacking in cusco a few years ago was at this hole-in-the-wall rotisserie chicken place (where all the locals seemed to be eating). it made perfect sense for me to seek out the peruvian rotisserie chicken from senor pollo in the east village. finally did this week and it didn't disappoint.

for a mere $6.50, you get a quarter chicken and choice of 2 sides. i chose the maduros (fried sweet plaintain) and mixed rice & beans. the tostones and fried yuca will have to sampled at a future visit. the jalapeno and parsley sauces are de-licious. on everything. well, except the sweet plaintains.

dare i say it? i think senor pollo is better than swiss chalet. there, i said it. it is what it is.
