Comments on: Ankling Spanish Harlem http://famousankles.com/2008/07/15/ankling-spanish-harlem/ Documenting my wanderings around and about NYC Tue, 15 May 2012 14:23:02 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: Famous Ankles http://famousankles.com/2008/07/15/ankling-spanish-harlem/#comment-512 Thu, 17 Jul 2008 22:56:31 +0000 http://famousankles.wordpress.com/?p=2732#comment-512 I think I passed right by Mojitos (perhaps it is in the second picture above?). But I can’t find a reference to Ricardos.

Mexican food (okay, I’ll admit it: actually Tex-Mex) is my favorite. I’ll check out Mojitos soon. Thanks for the recommendation.

With regard to the culture, you’ll note one issue I raised was the lack of people around that day. I found that very odd. I did find a bunch of people in Thomas Jefferson Park just to the south; but even it wasn’t jam-packed. So, yes, my experience in Spanish Harlem wasn’t the one that I expected. But that’s reason to go back.

Next time you are in El Barrio you should check out Ricardos and Mojitos for great food and drinks. Check El Museo del Barrio for wonderful art and go to the Harlem Mear on Saturdays for fantastic salsa.
