I love to eat. My favorite thing to do is walk into a new establishment and see what they have to offer me. Recently I have been craving spanish food and here are my top 3 favorite spots. I found one in Manhattan, Queens and Long Island so just about everyone in the tristate area can enjoy:)
Manhattan: While I attended beauty school I used to go and eat lunch with at least 3 to 5 people, with that being said we always tried to find a place that served large portions with a decent sitting area and not at all pricey. Being that we were in the heart of NYC that was hard to find. Then we found Tina's Cuban Cuisine our lunch time quota had been met. I was pleasantly surprised by the large selection of my favorite foods and the cosy atmosphere that Tina's provided. Roasted chicken, oxtail and delicious hearty soups are some of my go to orders when I step inside and if your lucky enough to stop by at lunch time you can get the lunch special which never ran me more than 10 bucks. The servings are hefty and tasty as can be so if your in the city give it a try. I believe they have three locations in the city but I frequent the one in herald square and I have not been disappointed since.
Queens: I have a problem with eating way after 10pm for some reason I am always driving around late night looking for a full meal. Thank goodness for Elena's located in Jamaica Queens they are open late not sure the exact time but I recall walking in there at 11:30 and it being super crowded and the food being super tasty. I believe they serve colombian food but whatever it is, its delicious and inexpensive my two favorite things. I always order the shrimps in garlic sauce with rice and beans. Alongside it I order maduros and an avocado salad that has a homemade salad dressing that I really enjoy. So if you are ever in the area it is definitely worth the stop you wont be disappointed.
Long Island: Out of all the restaurants that I mentioned Pollos a la Brasa is the one I frequent the most. Its located in Valley Stream Long Island and if you are not from there its worth the trip anyway. Its a small establishment but I do not mind because the food always taste fresh and is made to order. The food is not sitting in heating pans all day like most spanish food places so I think thats why they taste super good and flavorful. I order everything off the menu but the fried shrimp and fried yuca are my ultimate favorite. The rice is really good also and the beef soup is amazing. So if and when you get the chance do yourself the favor and give this place a try.
Ok now I'm hungry and I will be hitting up one of these spots to feed my hunger. Do all things luxury my beauties and enjoy your meal!!!!!!
