Yep, I'm half (from my dad's side).

Tostones are among my favorites of Puerto Rican food. I also love arroz con habichuelas or arroz con gandules, and pasteles. (Basically two different types of rice and beans, and then something that I would describe as a Puerto Rican version of a tamale.)

I was so excited when BF came to PR with us, I really wanted him to try the food. He thought it was bland. I think he was expecting it to be really spicy or something??

ETA: Sorry for the continuing hijack!!
