"The Dish: Fritanga Fritanga Caña Brava uses the same queueing rail system as Busch Gardens. And with good reason. The hot bar fills up every lunch hour of the week with construction workers, families and their screeching toddlers, and everyone in between. They’re all here for fritanga. For $14.95, you get a takeout container filled with gallo pinto, carne asada, plantains, fried cheese, and pickled cabbage. The meat is juicy, packed with flavor, and when every sweet and cheesy element in the container combines, it’s more exhilarating than David Attenborough narrating the successful escape of a minke from an orca pod. In a city that has such a deep affection for the fritanga, Caña Brava stands out as the best." - virginia otazo, ryan pfeffer, mariana trabanino
