Papaya
Went to Papaya for dinner. A fun little treat on a night away from the kids.
Had a pork chop that was so wonderful, and it came with a whole steamed baby bok choy. I actually ordered the dish for the bok choy!
And then fried plantains on the side as well, but to be honest, I'm not sure it was fried plantains. It wasn't anything like the fried plantains I've had at Puerto Rican restaurants. I think what I actually got was more like a banana fritter. Like gently mashed banana lightly breaded and fried. It was tasty, but it's not what I was expecting. You restaurant people - do you think it's possible they didn't have plantains and did a little quick improvising?
Maybe I'll go out for Puerto Rican tomorrow night and get some real fried plantains with some tomato garlicky dipping sauce!

I saw zero veggie stuff, Tiny. It's really not the place for vegetarians. 
Niagara Cafe does good, inexpensive Puerto Rican food and as an added bonus does chicken fingers the kids would eat
I thought it was somewhat expensive and their vegetarian section when I went there was limited to 1 eggy-smelling noodle dish. Did you see any veggie stuff?Permalink: Papaya.html
