La Piraña Lechonera

$$ cart lechon The Bronx

Angel Jimenez — machete in hand — carves whole roast pig from a converted trailer in a Mott Haven lot, weekends only, like he has for decades. The closest thing NYC has to a Puerto Rican lechonera on the island.

Order: Lechon with crispy cuerito (skin), arroz con gandules, and whatever salad Angel insists you try.
