Ate here today by myself on a rainy Monday afternoon on a Jewish holiday called Yom Kippur. This was my first time eating Guatemalan food and feeling curious about what to try, buy and eat. I had tried and brought the chicken stew with white rice and black beans with a side of green hot sauce and tortilla. It was really good and delicious. The service there wasn't bad at all that I had encountered a language barrier of what type of food they have that I should've spoken a bit more Spanish. Finally, I would definitely eat and come back again!
