Spanish Girls' cremita spinoff
Who here is familiar with "Aruchas"?
They are the little fried corn fritters.
Mama (That's what we called grandma) used to make them for me a couple of times a week for lunch. She would pick me up everyday so I could have lunch at home (across the street) and then take me back to school.
Boy do I miss her.
P.S. She didn't allow us to call her abuela. When we did her response was always "yo no vuelo!" She was very fiesty.

Can I hijack your thread for a second? Hope you dont mind.
Does anyone know of a restaurant on LI that serves Mofongo? I had it once in miami, and have been craving it, but never find it.

I dont know if the spelling is correct. my buela would make them with meat in them and shape them like torpedos.

Re: Spanish Girls' cremita spinoff
I often visit La Lechonera before I visit the Entemann's bakery. But sadly, they dont have mofongo. Down the block on suffolk avenue is another restaurant called "Mi Tierrita". Its a colombian restaurant and they also have another location in hempstead. I find their food to be VERY authentic and down right yummy!!!
Where is la Cubanita? Is that the place in Deer Park?

La Cubanita is on 5th ave right before La Lechonera I think. Right on that strip. There is also another Cubanita II in Deer Park off Bay Shore Rd.
