Finally!   Lorraine, my co-worker and I finally were able to meet for lunch after so many postponements.  Our waiter, John has the most gracious customer service, and at the same time he is professional, helpful, knows the menu, pleasant and has a great personality.     

Lorraine and I both ordered the Juanita’s chicken (mines was white meat only), half, salad and saffron rice.  Now.  Where to begin. 

Juanita’s chicken is marinated in mama Juanita’s authentic recipe then place on a rotisserie, which you can taste the seasonings, oh the skin is a bit crispy and so good. The salad had slices of avocado on top, tomatoes, onions, mixed greens.  The saffron rice and red beans yep, yep, yep.  Everything was delicious. 

Then I had a great idea, dessert. I had the tres leches cake, it was good and I liked it better because it was not overly sweet.  Lorraine had the lucuma ice cream, my great good, delicious!  She had 3 scoops and gave me one, but to tell you the truth, I wanted all 3. I should have ordered my own, but I most definitely will the very next few times or more.  Lucuma is a fruit of the Pouteria lucuma tree that is native to South America.  It grows in high altitudes. It has a hard, green outer shell and a soft yellow flesh with a dry texture and sweet flavor that people compare it to a mix of sweet potato and butterscotch.
