Peruvian red dipping sauce with vinegar and onions
Thank you so much! Mmmmm....looking forward to trying this! I don't think the one at Flor de Mayo has tomatoes, but this recipe seems most like what that sauce tastes like to me, except it's very, very thin, really a liquid with onions in it - soaking the onions just might be the trick!

Thanks, Todao! That isn't the one I am referring to, but it sounds damned tasty and I'm going to give it a try!
Peruvian red dipping sauce with vinegar and onions
I love the thin, red, vinegary dipping sauce served at Flor de Mayo in NYC with their delicious roast chicken. It seems so easy to replicate, yet I've been unable to do so...and I can't find a recipe for it online - it seems the sauce more commonly served with Peruvian chicken is a creamy one, and recipes for that abound...it is wonderful, but it's not what I want.
Does anyone know how to make the very simple red vinegar dipping sauce I'm thinking of?
Thanks!
Week in Pittsburgh, No Car
Thanks, boomfleisher! Had a very tasty (and cheap!) late lunch at Mexico City - guacamole (made at the table), fresh Soupa de tortilla (rich and delicious) and a chicken taco...and a tamarind Jarrito because I love those yucky things. My husband had a spicy shrimp and rice dish that was also very good and wicked hot. Great find, thanks for the suggestions!
Week in Pittsburgh, No Car
Thank you everyone! I very much appreciate all your suggestions. Headed off to Pittsburgh today and eager to try out your public transport system and all the recommendations. Thanks, again!
Week in Pittsburgh, No Car
I'll be in Pittsurgh (staying at the Sheraton in Station Square) for a week. During the day my husband and friends will be at a conference, so I'm on my own without a car until early evenings. I've never before been to Pittsburgh. Any suggestions on what to do/eat? I'd like a good (preferably healthy) breakfast place, a cafes for tea, places for lunch, etc...in general, delicious food where one would feel comfortable dining alone...thanks!! Also, any dinner suggestions are appreciated, too!
WD-50 is disgusting. Right? Anyone?
A friend was in town and eager to go to WD-50. I'd been there before, each time leaving unimpressed. I hoped this time around the experience would be different.
Our waitress was charming and lovely but, yet again, the food read better on paper than it tasted in the mouth, and the mediocre (and wicked expensive) wine left us all underwhelmed.
I won't say the food was disgusting; there were a few good confections, but nothing divine or even memorable.
We went out for kielbasa and beer afterwards. 'nough said.
What's the worst (nice) restaurant you have been to?
Has to be WD-50. Our waitress was charming and lovely, but the food and mediocre (and wicked expensive) wine left us all underwhelmed. We went out for kielbasa and beer afterwards. 'nough said.
Where to eat in Hudson Heights?
Thanks so much, everyone, I appreciate it!
Ladypandora, your list is fantastic - wow! My belly and I (and my husband) thank you. I'm excited to try your haunts.
And I'm going to wean myself from saying I live in 'Hudson Heights'...hee...

Where to eat in Hudson Heights?
Hi Leah - Hudson Height's boundaries are J. Hood Wright Park (173rd Street) and Fort Tryon Park (Margaret Corbin Circle at 192nd Street), west of Broadway. When the cable guy came to hook me up he told me he doesn't care what 'we' call it, he calls it the Bronx :)
Where to eat in Hudson Heights?
Hi all - just moved up to Hudson Heights...love it so far, but where does one get a good meal that they haven't cooked themselves at home?
Thanks for any info you've got!
