La Parada — Restaurant in Fajardo

Seen this place on Instagram and made it my business to get there while in Puerto Rico. We didn't make it early enough to get the 12 incher. we got there 30mins before closing and got the regular sized ones. I was disappointed I couldn't get the long one but I definitely did not leave without trying the regular sized alcapurria. I can't say enough how yummy and good they were. I mean the amount of meat inside was unbelievable. It's incredibly stuffed. Cooked perfectly. The ones I get in Brooklyn,N.Y. can't even compare. The flavor was so authentic. I even bought more to bring home. Yes my friends I have travelled back to New York with 3! You should definitely make it your business to stop by this place and pick up a snack. They also carry empanadas with many different fillings.

Price is very reasonable. I wish I took a photo of it but I was living in the moment and enjoying...

Was expecting alcapurrias made of green plantain not yuca (casava) The Real alcapurrias are of plantain. Yes the 12' ones are huge. Too fat and too soggy. Then I ordered the small ones to be made at the moment and when I get them out of the bags were what we call in Spanish GOMOSA in english gummy. Which meant it was not done at the moment. It were the ones that were at the window. Prices were excellent $5 12' and the small one $2 of meat and...

No es un lugar muy grande pero las alcapurias salen mejor cuando están friendolas compre 2 y estaban muy ricas al igual que el relleno lo único que el espacio es muy reducido y uno tiene q comerse todo en el carro ya que lo que hay es 1 mesa por lo demás la comida bien.

Y cuando tengan algo por mucho tiempo en vitrina saquen lo y hagan más que estén fresco pq si lo dejan por mucho rato saben las cosas a cartón

A diferencia del la alcapuria que estaba acabada de freír. No me gustó mucho no 😔 y más cuando lleva mucho tiempo así en vitrina no tiene el mismo gusto ni sabor a diferencia de cuando lo acabas de hacer q es otra cosa tiene su saborcito y esta calientico pero así hacerlo y dejarlo por rato en vitrina así le mata el sabor y aparte q cuando uno lo coje para ingerirlo ya no esta caliente se siente el caliente por afuera pero por dentro no.

Yo no recomiendo mucho no mejor lo hago en casa...
