"Mofongo Del Valle is one of the better Dominican restaurants in Hamilton Heights, with a long and comfy marble lunch counter, and line of bicycle personnel waiting to zoom off with delivery orders. The place has a way with meal size soups — including ones made with cow foot, beef, and mixed seafood — but the best features a tough old hen stewed into total tenderness. The specialty is mofongo in a dozen variations, including a chicharron de mofongo that matches thick slices of pork with the crunchiest skin imaginable with the classic Dominican-style, deep-fried mofongo." - Robert Sietsema
