Las Palmas Ocala FL

I finally had a chance to take my husband to this awesome Colombian “Hot Spot” for some lunch! Check out the AMAZING food we had!

Started off with a traditional Colombian soup called: SANCOCHO:

Sancocho

Colombian Soup

Pernil De Cerdo w/Yellow Rice and Maduros

Pernil De Cerdo w/White Rice, Black Beans and Maduros

We both had the Pork! I had mine with white rice, James had the yellow rice. Both came with black beans and Maduros (Sweet Plantains) The funny thing was about this day, we were actually on our way to Sonny’s for pulled pork, when I remembered I had a gift card for Las Palmas and it was my turn to buy lunch ((smiles)) So, we went here and I must say THANK GOD we didn’t go to Sonnys! I am seriously now in love with the taste of this pork!

I was introduced to the spice: Cilantro by my good friend Cheryl from MagiesPlaceCookbook.com a few years ago and that lovely flavor was so gently seasoned to perfection in this dish!

Just before we left we were greeted at the check-out by this lovely plate:

Apple Turnovers

They were only $1.00 each so we bought a few to take home and WOW! This was the perfect sweet snack before bed!

You can read about my first visit to Las Palams in April!

And remember, they do have internet service, so bring your laptop  and cruise the net while you eat!
