Nothing like good fried chicken during the Summertime.

Chihuahua! Yummy Tacos!

We are all familiar with Pollo al Pastor but are you familiar with Huahua’s Taqueria’s version? Charred pineapple, cilantro, onion, lime crema in a warm tortilla is perfect.

Indian on The Island

Chicken Tikka Masala! This savory dish made of boneless chicken pieces cooked w/ cream, fresh tomato sauce, onion, green pepper and indian spices was unbelievably good.
