As much as I loved the West-Indian Lamb Bowl, I disliked this pork stew. The rice was undercooked, the plantain was not ripe (I couldn't even cut the huge piece I received with a knife!), and the pork was extemely fatty, dry, and so hard I couldn't chew it. It was inedible. I had to throw the entire meal away. Very, very, very disappointing.
