Sofrito Lovers,

Jackson Heights is truly an amazing culinary hotspot! I've only begun exploring this incredible neighborhood and I'm already impressed beyond belief. The restaurants, food shops, bakeries, and other assorted eateries are plentiful, high quality, and delicious. I've been meaning to post more about my adventures but haven't had the time.

Read it, go out there, and taste for yourself! ¡Buen provecho!
