The 16 Best Restaurants In Hialeah - Miami - The Infatuation

"This Nicaraguan spot is as inviting as the children’s section of your neighborhood public library. Everyone here smiles at you—which isn’t always the case in a busy fritanga—and it’s relaxed enough that you can patiently choose the specific strips of carne asada you want (the shorter strips are juicier and easier to chew). Take the heavy container to one of the tables and enjoy the quiet of solo diners around you doing the same. Your fritanga here should also be paired with their rosa de jamaica that’s sour and sweet. For dessert, head to the freezer for a little baggie of their housemade ice cream with flavors like nancite, tres leches, and coconut. Get all three." - mariana trabanino, virginia otazo, ryan pfeffer
