La Casa Del Mofongo

Description

La Casa Del Mofongo is easy to find: just look for the gigantic pilon—the cooking tool used to mash plantains—standing in front of the restaurant. Inside this crowded but cheerful uptown Dominican restaurant, sample the moist mofongo with one of the long list of ingredients available, from salami to pork to shrimp. The kitchen is open late.
