El Mayoral Kendall Dr

"There's a clay-tiled roof above the bar inside El Mayoral. We assume this impressive architectural choice is intended to make the restaurant feel like a house. But what truly makes this place feel like someone’s home is the complimentary chicken broth, friendly staff, and media picada that comes with chicharron, chicken, steak, morcilla, chorizo, empanada, and arepa. It could probably feed every person who lives inside your own home—even the $25 half portion." - mariana trabanino

"Here's another Colombian restaurant that should be at the top of your list when you’re in need of a preposterously big plate of meat. They have two picada options—one for $60 and a half portion for $25. The cheaper picada is big enough to feed four people and includes just about every animal you’d find in a barn: chicken, steak, chicharron, morcilla, chorizo, and beef empanadas. In case that wasn’t enough, there are also roasted potatoes, fries, arepas, and tostones. It’s a meat deal that makes no sense in this economy, but we are not going to ask questions." - mariana trabanino, ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo
