Centro American Restaurant Description:
Hearty, flavorful Nicaraguan cuisine is the stock and trade of this bargain-priced Metairie restaurant, where specialties like sopa de res (beef soup with corn tortillas) and the chorizo con huevo appetizer (grated egg, sausage and rice dip for tortillas with salsa) have attracted a devoted local following. Chefs-owners Maribel Marizon and Roger Santiago assemble dinner plates as veritable feasts of their homeland's cooking, with such entrées as charbroiled chicken or tenderloin pork arriving with red beans and rice (mixed or separate), salad and fried plantains, which you can request be prepared lightly fried and sweet or salty and crispy. Speaking of plantains, don't miss the flank steak with plantains – sweet and savory.
