La Caridad, Upper West Side, NYC

This greasy spoon has an interesting combination of cuban and chinese items on the menu. Our Chinese waiter was fluent in Chinese and Spanish with only limited abilities in English.

Another customer sitting next to use gave some unsolicited history about the establishment with lines of waiting customers going around the block in its hay day.

We were happy for the one time experience but will try out some other places the next time we are up on the West Side.

Cuban steak with fried egg, standard.



Fried sweet plantains made me happy remembering my childhood in Venezuela.

Seafood in some kind of chinese sauce (can't remember what it was called), had a little more squid that we would of have chosen. The sauce was good but a little salty.
