Born and raised in the United States, Isaiah Mendoza recounts what eating Puerto Rican food means to him. In this inaugural episode, we go to La Bomba in Logan Square to take a deep look into dishes such as Arroz Con Gandules and Alcapurrias, as well as drinks like Coco Rico. In that time, we explore different facets of Puerto Rico: from the geography of the land and Isaiah’s familial hometown, to the recent devastating effects and political implications of Hurricane Maria.
