Best Places to Dine in NoMa and Around Union Market | Eater DC
"This small Peruvian chicken shop is packing big flavor, with casual orders of quarter, half, and whole chickens that are covered in cumin and other earthy spices before being roasted in rotisserie ovens. The juicy poultry is the main draw for an easy dinner or quick lunch, but the sides of yucca fries, Peruvian fried rice, plantains, and black beans are also delicious. Carefully choose the sauces to accompany your meal, with the classic aji verde, salsa rosado, and aji Amarillo all being made from peppers that vary in heat, with the green sauce being the spiciest and the pink being the most mild. The chicken recipe comes from the Sanchez family, who originally hail from Lima and operate Peruvian chicken spots under different names throughout the DMV. District Rico has a sister location in nearby Brentwood as well." - Emily Venezky
