Eatery of the Day: La Cuarta Peruvian Restaurant



To contrast with our posting of Popeye's we present La Cuarta, they make Peruvian style rotisserie chicken as part of their menu. Peruvians are to chicken what Argentinians are to steak. If you're tired of the KFC, Kennedy's, Popeye's greasy fried chicken then it's time to give roasted chicken done right a try. The reviews it received at Yelp and Urban Spoon are a bit mixed. In things that are a matter of taste you can only find out by trying. They are located on 4th Avenue between 26th and 27th streets.

Store of the day: Popeye's Chicken of Sunset Park




It's been open about a year and appears to do a bristling business. Located on the corner of of 64th street and 8th avenue right at the border of Dyker Heights. It's part of the Popeye's restaurant chain offering the standard chicken fare. It's too far from either KFC or Kennedy's to give them any competition and it appears that their target demographics is the Chinese community. At least now you know where there is a Popeye Chicken place in Sunset Park. Yes, they do speak English at the counter.
