Colombian restaurant · East Boston

"Bandeja paisa is a traditional Colombian dish made with fried eggs, chicharron, steak, plantains, arepa, morcilla (blood sausage), rice, beans, and avocado, and it stars at El Peñol. To break up the starchy, meaty flavors of bandeja paisa, try one of El Peñol’s fresh juices, with flavors such as guanábana (soursop) and maracuyá (passionfruit). El Peñol is open for indoor dining, takeout, and delivery via DoorDash and UberEats." - Tommy Ranucci
