On a quiet street in Sunnyside, Queens, squeezed between a dry cleaner and a taekwondo school, sits Bolivian Llama Party \u2014 the only active Bolivian restaurant in all five boroughs of New York City. <\/p>\n
Owned and operated by brothers Alex, Patrick, and David Oropeza, the takeout-only restaurant is known for its unique takes on Bolivian classics such as salte\u00f1as, chicha pork and Bolivian-style street sandwiches like fried chicken and pork-chola. But of all their sandwiches, none are more unique than the trancapecho, which translates from Spanish to \u201cstuck in your chest.\u201d <\/p>\n
The trancapecho features a schnitzel-like fried steak, roasted potatoes, a layer of white rice, a house-made pickle salad, llajua mayo and a fried egg, all packed between sarnita bread freshly baked in-house. \u201cWhen you bite it, it\u2019s going to be messy,\u201d Alex Oropeza said. \u201cThe meat\u2019s the size of your face.\u201d <\/p>\n
