I had some for the first time today when I went to a Folk Festival....this African Restaurant had a tent and was selling some, and when I tried it, it was so good that I went back after I ate my food and got a side order of it. It was that delicious  I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince. | |

 You've never had fried plantains before??? It's a staple of my diet, when I'm not too lazy to cook 'em. You should find a restaurant that specializes in good Caribbean or Latino (Central American, South American, or Cuban) food. They're always on the menu as tostones or patacones (fried and salty) or maduros (sauteed and sweet). Yummy! 
Where's Painted at? She'll school ya on some platano. [Edited 10/12/08 18:02pm] | |

[Edited 10/12/08 18:02pm] Word! I can't go to long without having them  I remember when I was at school and I was living on campus, I didn't have them for months and months and then one day, I went to the cafeteria and I saw that they had them. I nearly cried.  I love tostones and maduros  | |

[Edited 10/12/08 18:02pm] Well the vendor I got the food from has a restaurant here, so I can always go visit there and get some more, and I think I will! I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince. | |

I want to try them. Looking at some recipes and the different ways it's served it seems similar to some of the things they do in Thailand with different types of bananas, but I'm intrigued to give plantains a go. Looks good! | |

 I'm starving over here and this don't help. I was close to there too.  I ended up going to a Cuban restaurant called Las Vegas of all things and they had a plate with a half fried chicken, white rice, black beans, and maduros for $7.95. That food was too good! | |
