 A classic Puerto Rican favorite: ground beef simmered with sofrito, onions, peppers, olives, and just the right spices. Savory, comforting, and full of island soul. 

Traditional Chicken

Tender shredded chicken infused with garlic, peppers, onions, and herbs. A flavor that feels like home cooking in every bite.
