Parillada

My favorite "restaurant" in our neighborhood is the local parillada, or barbecue. These guys show up at the park on Avenue Texas at about dusk with their grill and coolers full of food. They light their mobile grill and start serving up delicious grilled kasava bread and spicy wings. Here is a view of the action.
Some competing street food venders have tried to move in (Monumental Empanadas), but they can't hold a candle to the kabob!
We sit at plastic chairs and tables and enjoy our dinner under the stars. Before our food arrives we can usually get in a game of dominos or cribbage. Notice the huge pile of delicious pinchos (kabobs) as the chef poses for a picture.
