ROUND-TRIP TO PUERTO RICO FROM NYC is now $382 . . . But if you don't got it you can go to CAMARADAS EL BARRIO in Spanish Harlem and get a taste of PR for less $20 dollars AND enjoy some good authentic food and music from PR. Just so you know, you MUST and I mean MUST have the jibaro sandwich. It has got to be the best sandwich EVER! - no joke! And it is only 7 dollars. Anyway if you are feeling really ambitious you can have with a nice ice cold bottle of Chimay for an additional $10 and not the Premiere either, the Grande Reserve - that's that high class beer :-) Thursday night is the night to go, but be warned get there before 9pm as you won't get a table and it gets PACKED (like rush hour subway packed) after 9pm. Check it out - 2241 1st Ave.\115th St. - http://www.camaradaselbarrio.com/. Shout out to Stacey for putting me on to this.
