"For some of the best mofongo in San Juan, head to Orozco’s. Their “trifongo” is made with a combination of plantains, cassava, and sweet potato, and you can get it with a choice of seafood, meat, or vegetables. For an authentic Puerto Rican meal at a reasonable price, this is a great option."

"A side of rice and beans or rice with pigeon peas (arroz con gondules) rounds out any meal."
"Authentic Puerto Rican cuisine is delicious and inexpensive, and you can find a selection of island meal staples at the very casual, friendly, and excellent Orozco’s on Ashford Avenue. Tender roast pork, or pernil, is island specialty. A side of rice and beans or rice with pigeon peas (arroz con gondules) rounds out any meal."
on Pernil
"For my main course I had the pernil asado, (roasted pork shoulder) again with the rice and pigeon peas. The pernil was fresh and moist, with a wonderful flavor of pork, garlic, and adobo. Just what I needed."
on Pernil
"You can have your mofongo with green or ripe plantains; the latter is sweeter but we prefer the green. Try both and be your own judge."
