Wow. I haven't had much Dominican food in the past to compare this to, but this was GREAT. The…read moreportion sizes are huge and the prices are so affordable - I will absolutely be coming back here again and again. This time, I ended up getting the Chicharrón with spaghetti instead of rice and beans because I had heard that Dominican spaghetti was something I had to try, and I didn't regret it at all. For the price of $14, this was probably 1.5-2 portions of food. I will be having this for dinner later on today! Chicharrón ($14) - These were deep fried pork belly chunks and they were pretty much cooked perfectly. They were seasoned well and just so crispy and juicy. When you deep fry pork belly in chunks, it's really easy to overcook them and dry them out, but this was just wonderfully lightly crispy on the outside and still so juicy and moist on the inside. Biting into each chunk was like a wonderful burst of flavor - really amazing job on these. Spaghetti (side) - Ah yes the Dominican spaghetti. If you want Italian pasta, this is not it, but it had a certain home-cooked charm and was a type of spaghetti I had not tasted before. It was creamy, tomato-ey, and buttery. The closest I can compare is that it had the texture of chef boyardee pasta, but the taste was much more smokey with hints of sweetness and umami. It was really filling and delicious! All in all - a great deal. $14 for that much food and meat is amazing, and everything tasted really fresh and well-cooked. I will absolutely be returning!

While out on a drive, I decided to place an online order to Yo Momma in Dorchester for takeout…read more This cozy eatery is geared towards takeout and delivery with only two seats in the steamy waiting area in front of the counter. They serve up Brazilian and Latin food here including breakfast sandwiches, burgers, empanadas, wings, Jamaican patties, picanha steak, pollo guisado, sticky ribs, chilled desserts, and drinks in the cooler. I ordered the Chopped Cheese burger with Fries & can soda ($12.95 plus tax), 2 Empanadas (beef & cheese and chicken & cheese) with a spicy dipping sauce, a Jamaican Beef Patty ($3) and Tres Leches Cake ($3.25 plus tax). The food was ready to go for pickup in about 20 minutes after placing the order. I opted not to take a can soda which was limited to Coke, Pepsi, and Orange Fanta. I enjoyed some of my food in the vehicle since there was a lot to eat. The portion size was generous with the supersize chopped cheese burger and lots of golden fries and orange dipping sauce filling the container. The empanadas and Jamaican beef patty had a nice crispy pastry shell and tasty fillings. The frosted tres leches cake with fresh strawberries was also a great dessert to go with my coffee. I would definitely order again from Yo Momma for some tasty eats!

Chicken was moist and season well the batter was like a panko or shake and bake, it some of the chicken wasn't half covered of panko, but the taste was very good. The Plantain was good crispy on outside moist inside. The Tostones were just meh very bland. The Caribbean Cherry drink was delicious great combination sweet but not overly sweet. The Leches Cake was delicious omg perfect! Would try this spot again!
