Chimpum Pollo - Aquia Harbour

I don't know why it's called chimpun when I know the food is not peruvian other than the chicken...the fried rice or chaufa rice did not taste like it at all, chicken didn't have a lot of flavor either. I don't think I would came back here. Food: 2 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 3

The grilled chickens are large and very rich. I recommend it, there is a good atmosphere. They took a little while to serve me that's why I put 4 stars Food: 3 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 5

I 've been here twice now. I can 't put into words the actual foodgasm I had this afternoon. The first time I came, I asked, What is a good traditional dish? and I was pointed to the Lomo Saldado en carne de res (beef . It was good, and it had been a few weeks, and I found myself working in the area again. I wanted to give it another try. Again, I was pointed to a dish called (in my best attempt to translate Poor Man 's Steak. It looked good, but because of the name of the restaurant I wanted to try their chicken. I also asked about pupusas since I 'd not heard of them before. I ordered one order of that and a half chicken with arroz blanco y platanos fritas (white rice and fried plantain . The pupusas was like a sopé with pork and cheese inside (I ordered pork and cheese, other options were cheese only or cheese and beans. They came with a red tomato sauce. They were delicious, fried with melted cheese and pork inside, and came with a coleslaw that was also very good with the right amount of tangy. I had two, one I ate with a fork as it was still super hot, but vy the time I got to the second one it had cooled a bit and I was able to eat it with my hands. Some of the slaw I ate by itself, but I discovered on the second pupusas (or pupusa? that putting the tomato sauce and coleslaw on top was the best combo. Then the pollo (chicken ... It was a half chicken as I had ordered, the size of a fryer you 'd get at walmart, maybe a little smaller. In this case, size was no issue as they packed in so much flavor. The skin had a delicious seasoning and the chicken had just the right amount of crisp-ness on the wing tip and the end of the leg. Now you 're thinking, but the white meat was probably too dry if it was a little blackened! Nope, they injected a seasoning mixture into the white meat, it was a nice suprise for sure. I used the green sauce mostly that came with the chicken. I would give it out of 5 for heat. Not burn the entire inner lining of your entire digestive system hot, but definitely some heat and enough to make your nose run. The white sauce was a mayo and or tarter sauce combo that I didn 't care for, but I had plenty of the green sauce to last. As far as my sides, the fried plantain was just right, caramelized with a firm texture and the white rice was on par, providing a cooling effect in a green sauce firestorm. My plate was cleaned, the rest of the chicken was cooked well and very juicy with a good amount of seasoning. As far as the restaurant, you order at the counter, have a seat, and they bring you your food. Drinks are given out at the register. They have a nice picture book for their dishes, so if you 're unfamiliar with the terminology, you can know what you are getting. I think I paid $13.50-ish for the chicken, well worth it, and now it 's time for a nap. I also tried two Peruvian cervezas, and I preferred the one in the green bottle.
