  • Mangú: One Of The Greatest Dominican Breakfast

    Hey y’all, we have another good one for you today! This is definitely one of my favorite dishes in the whole wide world. I know, crazy right!? But once you try this beautiful mixture you will see what I’m talking about.

    What is mangú?

    Mangú is one of the most typical Dominican breakfasts in the Dominican Republic. Mangú are boiled and mashed green plantains combined with a little bit of salt, water and butter. This traditional meal consists of mashed plantains (Mangú) and it is often served with fried eggs, cheese, salami and fried onions (los tres golpes). This is how it is typically eaten, but you can definitely eat it with whatever you want. Because, the star here is the mangú. However, I recommend you to try it the Dominican way because it’s absolutely delicious, and it will most likely become one of your favorite meals. Other people eat mangú with the sides separated, not all together like I stated above. Some don’t like this combination so they go for meat, fish and or other side of their preference.

    Mangú is a meal that is often referred to as breakfast but in all seriousness, Dominicans eat this at all times, during the morning, day and night. For this recipe you will need butter, salt, oil, onions, plantains, Dominican sausage (salami), eggs, and Dominican white cheese that’s specifically labeled to fry.

    We will provide you with an easy and affordable recipe to make for the whole family. Mangú can be done at any time of the day, the key is what you pair it with. Once you have these food items on hand, the process will be fairly easy. Hope you enjoy and have fun creating this meal as much as we do. Don’t forget to not only share this meal with others but also share the recipe with them. Enjoy!

  • Flippers: The Most Superior Brunch Spot

    This one is for all of my early birds. Out in Soho, on Broadway there’s a store on the corner that you might miss if you’re not paying attention (or the line isn’t out the door). Flippers is a brunch spot that serves up delicious soufflé pancakes. This particular eatery is far from a walk in and is highly recommended to get a reservation first. If this warning isn’t heeded you can try your luck with the waitlist. From my experience it’s a gamble. The first day I went and found it by chance, the I never got a text saying there was a spot open. The second I lucked out and got a full party of four in.

    A brunch spread from Flippers in Soho. Caramel banana chocolate pancakes, strawberry pancakes,fresh fruit pancakes. Hashbrowns, bacon, and mimosas.

    Once you enter the restaurant is kinda small but that just makes it cozy. Depending on the size of your party seating can get a bit tight. While Flippers does sell other food, the main star is their pancakes. The pancakes themselves are very cute and yes they jiggle when you shake them. I ordered one mimosa. Let me tell you something, they are very generous with the champagne so if you’re going to brunch to drink, this is the place to be.

    You can find Flippers located in Soho, Manhattan. I recommend getting a reservation if you plan to make a day out of it.
