Colombian restaurant · East Boston

"This East Boston favorite offers both sweet and savory plantains. For sweet plantains, try El Peñol’s arroz con pollo (rice with chicken) served with platanos maduros, which are fried simply in oil. For savory plantains, try its cazuela de mariscos (seafood stew made with coconut milk), which is served with crispy tostones — unripe plantains that are fried, smashed, and fried again, and which provide the perfect dipping opportunity for your seafood stew." - Karen Wilber
