11 Great Puerto Rican Restaurants In NYC

"Weekend afternoons, Angel Jimenez holds court in a cluttered Mott Haven trailer, hacking at roast pig while posing for photos and handing out samples. With thick skin that shatters like peanut brittle, that roast pig is, without a doubt, the best lechón in the city. Don’t be surprised if it takes you two hours (or more) to get through a line that’s 30-people deep, and don’t be alarmed if you see a guy in a tank top jogging down the block with an arm-sized machete. That’s just Angel fetching more lechón." - marisel salazar, bryan kim
