i have to say i like both cooked and under-cooked rice puddings if they're done well. my favorite is in greece (lamia to be exact) and it's more like a solid custardy pudding with a soft layer that forms on the surface, topped w/ cinnamon.
this place is a greek deli, and this is how they do it...
but they still can't compare to the homemade (or restaurant made) greek ones i've had.
i wish i had a spot like that up the street. we have a decent greektown here in chicago with some quality rice puddings (rizogalo - in greek) but it's too much effort.
If your in brooklyn there is a peruvian spot called Coco Roco (two locations I think). They make the crazy Arroz Con Leche. Amazing stuff I tell you. Also have this crazy Tres Leches Flan. Damn just talking about this shit. And the bread pudding is up to par as well.
this sounds good. i like arroz con leche.
i just went to an argentian spot out here that had some dulce de leche flan and it was on point. they also had these dulce de leche cookies that i brought home...killin it!
its a greek deli owned by a Korean woman...tucked into the back of a convienece store, so it isnt most authentic place, but the food is damn good...
is that Ravenswood? the dude that produced one of my bands records, David baker, lead singer for mercury Rev lived in Ravenswood, and I remember a Greek deli with two HOT ASS twin sisters working there. I ate there EVERY day.
haha nice! i was referring to the greektown in downtown chicago on halsted. a bunch of greek restaurants and shops etc. i think there are a couple in ravenswood...never been though.
