Let’s welcome back an old family friend to the neighborhood. Pica Pica also has ceviches and sweet plantains, full-on plates of the arepas fillings (the Caribe, carne asada, a vegetarian and vegan combo, etc.) that come with rice and beans, as well as salads and desserts - yuca buñuelos! The other sauces were different versions of spicy/sweet. This was more than enough food, with plenty of leftovers. Guasacaca, an avocado sauce, came with everything, and went on everything. Perhaps it’s something that must be eaten just out of the fryer, as a friend counseled me. These unfortunately did not change my mind. For the life of me, I don’t get tostones, as I’ve only had ones that are tough and flavorless. The garlic was a tad bitter I’d get it without, next time. To gild the lily, we also ordered garlic fried yuca. Instead, we got the crispy chicken, which was pieces of fried chicken breast, and rather difficult to eat. The dough was crispy, light and sweet, but I wish I’d tried this with a simpler filling. We also ordered a regular-sized cachapa, which is basically an arepa but made with fresh corn instead of corn flour. All tasty as well, bite-sized, so you can easily share a few. The BF wanted to try the empanadas, so we got a sampler of those, too: beef, chicken, and cheese.
