HOT AMN we found an Absolute Diamond at Branch Brook Park. Yes I am not talking Tony's. While at Tony's we see Tripleta Wife and I said next time we are down here we have to check them out. So So So glad we did. I ordered the pork slices and tostones. The pork tender cooked perfectly the tostones seasoned just the way it like it. My Wife order chicken chunks with mofongo we both had our of course Pina Colada.Very very happy we had to return to explore more of the menu.
