Lolas in Ghent

Cary and I went to Lolas this evening for dinner.  We had been then once before with a group of people and were suprised at how good the food was.  The style is Carribean mixed with a Latin flavor.  Beans, rice, and plantains play a predominant role in the food.  We are both partial to the plantain nachos, pictured below.  We also both enjoy the chimichura, also pictured below.  Cary ordered a shrimp and plantain "smash" dish that came in the most unique entre dish I've ever seen.  Apparently the container was neater than the food. 

This restaraunt does have a cross-dressing party on Sunday morning's. 

Cary and her unique container filled with plantain mash and shrimp.

Awesome plantain nachos.  You are correct, Drag Brunch on Sunday mornings.

Chimichura, with mashed potatoes and asparaugs.  Very good.
