[The] FB Lounge could yet become a real player on the New York jazz scene, perhaps filling the niche once held by the Greenwich Village mainstay Sweet Rhythm...
In exploring some of New York's premiere Latin music venues, the New York Times talks about the exciting music being played at the Fonda Boricua's FB Lounge.
Brief excerpt and description of Latin Beat Magazine's March, 2009 review of the FB Lounge, which they called, "A musical oasis in the heart of Spanish Harlem"!
Your destination is a neighborhood staple called La Fonda Boricua.
Having neglected uptown for too long, I was immediately receptive when my friend Jas suggested an excursion to one of the many fine and cheap establishments north of 96th Street.
Even if you had a Puerto Rican grandmother, you'd be lucky if she could whip up food as hearty and soul-soothing as these sand-castle-size heaps of garlicky mofongo, densely packed with plantain and fried pork; nicely seasoned stews with fork-tender meat.
The Fonda Boricua is chosen as a "Top Pick" by the New York Times "Dining and Wine" section.
The Puerto Rican food masters at La Fonda Boricua on 106th Street in “El Barrio” had an unexpected challenge on their own turf yesterday.
One blogger's review of the Fonda Boricua restaurant.
Delicious food. I had the arroz con pollo, a must here. Very fall off the bone tender.
This working-class diner cranks out all sorts of filling Puerto Rican dishes, and almost every one comes with piles of rice and beans, plus bread.
