"You know that part of the lap around the lake when it starts to smell like pork and you can’t figure out where it’s coming from? We’re here to tell you that it’s wafting over from across the highway at Bongos. Make a mental note to return there after your lap, where a very fun patio deck awaits. The Caribbean food at this renovated gas station is delicious, by way of spicy shrimp plates with rice and beans, pork and aioli sandwiches that almost rival Un Bien’s. Add a coconut-blasted piñas and some cheese-stuffed yucca bites, and your afternoon’s set." - aimee rizzo
