"The Dish: Lechón The perfect bite exists, and it consists of crisp lechón splashed with pique. At Lechonera La Isla, an East Harlem Puerto Rican spot that’s been open since 1991, the fatty pork and sweet, vinegar-based hot sauce fuse together on an atomic level, bringing out the best in one another. Grab a stool at the counter in the little room with morcilla and chicharron displayed in the window, order a big platter with rice and beans, and pace yourself." - bryan kim, sonal shah, willa moore, will hartman, molly fitzpatrick, neha talreja
