"As a result of the pandemic, chef Jose Mendin’s Puerto Rican restaurant La Placita has reinvented itself as a one-stop spot offering four different eateries offering to-go juices, tacos, a green market, and a “Piggy Bank” Placita menu where all items range from $5 to $19. Favorites include the tripleta Boricua, roasted pork, country ham, fritas and salsa marirosa, mofongo ramen, and fried cheese with guava. Wash it down with a boozy piña colada, which is available to-go." - Alona Martinez
