The other night I went to Sofrito, a spanish restaurant in midtown, with a friend. One of their specialty drinks was the Pineapple Mojito. I had never had one before and so we tried it. It was delish! I didn’t think mint and pineapple meshed well together, but it was a great blend. Check out the food we ordered also
This was our appetizer. It consisted of calamari, chicken, mixed empanadas, cheese sticks, and pork fried green plantains topped with shrimp, octopus, cod fish, and steak.
I ordered the grilled salmon with sauteed spinach
He ordered the roast pork with arroz con grandules and fried sweet plantains.
This piece of pork was massive! This picture is not doing it any justice, but our waiter said it is the biggest dish on the menu. Everyone that passed our table just stared at it. It was too funny! My little piece of fish was nothing compared to this pork. It was also the best roast pork I ever had. It was so tender and full of flavor. He gave me a substantial portion and he ate quite a bit himself, and once we were full, we were still left with half of the pork. At the table next to us, there were three guys who kept staring at his plate. They ended up ordering one. These dudes were pretty big and they all shared one plate and they still had left overs. It was ridiculous. If you ever go to Sofrito’s and order the pork, you are in for a massive meal.

hmm was this a date?
The food looks good (minus the pork). I’ve never been to sofrito
Lol you sound like Shelly. It wasn’t a date. The food was great and the drinks are good too. I also had their white wine sangria, which was really good too.
