Cha Cha Chicken with Fried Plantains and Dirty Rice and Black Beans
Last week I stopped by Cha Cha Chicken, a Caribbean restaurant on Ocean and Pico in Santa Monica, to catch up with old friends. Since they're known for their Jamaican jerk chicken, I ordered a dish featuring this speciality: the Cha Cha Chicken with Fried Plantains and Dirty Rice and Black Beans on the side.
Although the chicken didn't have as much flavor as anticipated, it was moist and I really enjoyed the sides. Next time I may upgrade the spiciness from "Mild" to "Mix," or try one of the other tantalizing dishes they offer, like the Coconut Fried Chicken, Jerk Chicken Enchiladas, or Chilaquiles.
If you've visited Cha Cha Chicken recently, what do you recommend trying?
