TOP 10 Foods You MUST Eat In Puerto Rico! | AND Exactly Where To Get Authentic Puerto Rican Food!

Traveling to another country can be a life-changing experience. If you do it right, you get the opportunity to not only see a country's monuments and attractions but also experience its culture and lifestyle. One extremely important aspect of a country's culture is its food, and this is no exception for Puerto Rico.
Our traditional criollo cuisine plays an integral role in every cultural activity and family gathering. Similar to the people of Puerto Rico, our traditional cuisine has a rich history resulting from the blend of our African, Taíno, and Spanish ancestor's traditions resulting in what legendary Spanish Chef Jose Andrés described as one of the most interesting cuisines in the world!
With so many delicious food options to choose from, it's difficult to know where to start. But, don't worry, in this video, I'll show you my picks for the top 10 traditional Puerto Rican foods and precisely where to get them!
In this video, we'll first stop at the community of Piñones where we'll get some authentic Puerto Rican fritters called alcapurrias, bacalaitos, and empanadillas. After taking a dip on the beach under the sun we get a refreshing piña colada at an oceanfront restaurant. Then we travel to Lote 23 in the heart of Santurce where we try the delicious mofongo with fried meat. Then we head over to Bebo's BBQ for a plate of pernil, yuca and amarillitos. We finish the video off by tasting some delicious Puerto Rican coffee and pairing it with the authentic Puerto Rican pastry called quesitos.

    I appreciate the tips on places to eat that you share in your videos. I wanted to share an opinion on a lechonera/restaurant in Cayey, that's not on the Pork Highway, but I feel is better than the ones in Guavate. It's called EL CUNAO, and it's on a mountain road (PR-1) in Cayey, right on a curve. I must admit, it's been more than 5 years since I went there, but it was so good that it really made a lasting impression with me. TRUE authentic tasting Puerto Rican food is hard to find lately in Puerto Rico. I don't know why, but I really find that to be the case. So when you find it, it sticks with you. The time that we went, it was with a group of family, and there were a lot of different dishes ordered, and EVERYTHING I tasted and sampled was spot on. Fresh tasting, perfectly seasoned, and great flavors. Whether it was the meats, the stews, the rices, the beans, or whatever, everything was great, and tasted like the great, authentic PR flavors that I grew up on. Even though it's labeled as a lechonera, think of it more of a restaurant, because they feature a lot more than just pork. Last time I passed it, it was closed, which broke my heart. But if you are ever in the area, I would definitely recommend it. It's a sit down, with good service, good food, and reasonable prices. Five years ago is a long time, and who knows, maybe things have changed, but if you are in the area and give it a try, let me know what you think. And if you know of a great traditional criollo restaurant, let us know.

    Bacalaitos, or cod fritters, are a Puerto Rican staple. They are flat and chewy on the inside and crispy on the outside. Bacalaitos are typically sold at food kiosks along the country's beaches. Although they first appeared during the time of the Spanish explorers, they originated in Africa.

That said, I have a couple of questions I hope you can help with. 1. Some of our family members have pork and shellfish allergies. Can recommend any restaurants the will accommodate a customer for food allergies? 2. As a family, we have lodging figured out. The only thing we need to find is an outdoor place for us to grill/cook. Maybe a public park and/or renting a place that will accommodate approximately 40 people.
