"If you want to eat Haitian food that’s as tasty as it is filling, head to Lawndale’s Fritay Lakay. Open as early as 8:30am daily, start your day with a plantain porridge, a yam mash mixed with nuts and dried fruit, or breakfast spaghetti that tosses in bell peppers, onions, and sausage in a tomato sauce. On days when it’s so cold that going outside is offensive, go for the bouillon. It’s a stew that blends thick cuts of beef with carrots, noodles, and plantains, and feels like a complete, hearty meal in one bowl. " - candis mclean
