I ordered the roast pork with yellow rice and bean and my fiancé ordered the roast pork with yellow rice and vegetables. The pork is delicious!!!!!

I recently visited Las Delicias, a new Ecuadorian restaurant and bakery in Waterbury. The interior…read moredecor is both welcoming and cozy, featuring a soothing mint green color scheme and exposed brick accents, creating a delightful ambiance. As I entered, my attention was drawn to the enticing display of freshly baked goods, ranging from delectable muffins to various breads. The bakery section smelled amazing. The bakery section that's contain the breads is self-serve, where you select your bread,place them in a basket and then take them to the register. Beyond their bakery offerings, Las Delicias has a hot food section, offering a diverse array of lunch and dinner options (they also offer breakfast, but I visited after breakfast). On the other bakery side, there are cupcakes, cakes, and ice cream. The staff at Las Delicias were warm, friendly, and welcoming. I was delighted to discover that their menu could be easily accessed through the QR codes around the restaurant providing a convenient way to explore their menu. During my visit, I opted to satisfy my sweet tooth with their strawberry cake. The cake was yellow and reminiscent of sponge cake in texture with strawberry filling in the center. I couldn't resist trying their Guaguas sin relleno, a traditional bread specially decorated for the Day of the Dead.. Everything was was delicious and I look forward to visiting next time and trying their hot food and ice cream. The space use to be a bar and the bakery/restaurant still has a portion that still looks like a bar. The owners are still deciding how they will utilize that space.

Lunch today at Banana Brasil Grille in Waterbury. I went with the $14.95/lb Meat only option. My…read morelunch certainly "filled me up", but like other fellow Yelpers have stated in their reviews, some of the meat selections were very salty. The meats that were not as salty tasting were on the bland side, I just kinda expected to experience "more flavor", and it simply just wasn't there. I lived in the Deep South for a year, and the Q found in that region simply blows away what I experienced today. Maybe it's not a fair comparison, but I couldn't help but think that. The location of the Banana Brasil Grille is conveniently located near Rt8, so it was easy to get back on to the highway to continue my journey after my lunch. Overall, I'd say it was a mediocre lunch, I can't see a reason for a return visit. A weak 3 Star Rating, IMO.

One area is thoughtfully designed to resemble your grandmother's living room from years ago, creating a warm, nostalgic feeling that brings back so many memories. And then there's the food--the highlight of the experience. Some of the best Spanish cuisine I've had in a long time. Their empanada selection is excellent, and the menu features a variety of authentic Spanish favorites. The drink menu is equally impressive, offering unique options at very reasonable prices. I only wish we had taken photos of our meals, but honestly, that speaks for itself as we were too busy enjoying every bite. If you're looking for great food, a welcoming atmosphere, and a memorable dining experience, this spot is definitely worth a visit.

I am all in on Lima 32 Peruvian restaurant. Back in January, I noticed the Lima 32 sign in the old…read moreTacos mi Nachos space in Meriden. Something about the sign aesthetic made me think it would be a good place. I Yelp-Searched it, and Lima 32 damn near had a perfect rating based on less than 50 reviews. I'm a Food Blogger. So I try to explore new places and avoid repeating spots I know. I've eaten at Lima 32 three times since January. Lima 32 is a small casual Peruvian spot located in a very small plaza in Meriden. Parking is tough, but they've done a nice job with the aesthetics inside. Lima 32 is also available on DoorDash within a certain area. I've now had the Lomo Saltado, the Arroz Con Marisco and the Chaufa de Pollo. Best Lomo Saltado I've ever had, and I've had a really expensive one at a famous CT spot. It's basically a beef and veggie stir fry. You can see the chef making it with fire in the pan if you have the right seat. The soy and oyster sauce based glaze is good salty. So flavorful and everything is perfectly cooked. Best Arroz Con Marisco I've ever had. It's a saucy Peruvian paella. The sauce (Aji Amarillo) has a well rounded creamy pepper flavor. The seafood, like crab, mussels and shrimp really stand out. I suspect the seafood varies depending on what's available. The Chaufa de Pollo, a Chinese fried rice style dish, was very good too. Huge pieces of chicken. Eat it with the delicious Aji Verde sauce. Is Lima 32 hidden? I don't know. But it sure the hell is a gem. It's must visit. 5 Stars
