Bring on the Chuleta Kan Kan, Raices Rest. Puerto Rico

Chuletas Kan-Kan ... it just sounds tasty, doesn't it? Well, those of you who know Spanish will recognize the chuleta, or pork chop, part of the dish, but I'm betting not too many people know where the Can Can comes from. Frankly, neither do I, but I know what it is: a pork chop served with ribs and cuero, or fried pork skin.

I saw this restaurant on the Travel Channel and wanted to try it so in my recent trip to Puerto Rico i have the opportunity to eat there.   The decor is bright and homey with pretty murals on the wall, has a very fun country/Caribbean atmosphere.  They serve your meal in traditional bowls and plates. So i  Try the chuleta kan kan, it's amazing. It's the juiciest (not greasy, juicy) pork you'll ever taste. This one weight in like 5 pounds so if you are not a big eater you can share it. I choose for side Mofongo(Mash Plantain). Wow its was so yummy , full of flavor lead in by the garlic. Also the location of this restaurant is a plus, located in Old San Juan, just a walking distance from cruise ship port and hotels so after you dig out in raices you can enjoy the sights of this old  San Juan city.  Oh the price for this food only $16.95. Not Bad ahhh what a pleasure of eat.
