"A Bolivian, family-run restaurant whose owners sit at a long table greeting customers and packing orders of sopa de mani and the family’s celebrated salteñas—pastry parcels filled with a scalding, sweet-savory stew of chicken, eggs and olives that burst like soup dumplings. Beloved by the Bolivian and wider Latin communities, the business has adapted into a weekend collection point during the pandemic, but rising ingredient costs for essentials like chuños and ají boliviano have forced menu cuts and left takings and future planning uncertain." - Jonathan Nunn
