WHAT TO EAT, DRINK & DO — ACCORDING TO ARTISTS WE LOVE

Feel the neighborhood heartbeat at Yolanda
“If you text me and I’m over there, I will come over in a heartbeat. It’s a couple blocks from my house. It’s a Dominican restaurant and — you know how Boston Market has like the Rotisserie Chicken? They do that, but they have like five kinds of meat and all kinds of potatoes and yucca and yams… and then they have their special two kinds of rice…
They’re like the neighborhood heartbeat, because there are so few places to order food over where we’re from in East New York (Cypress Hills, technically). It just has this homey thing — it’s the same ladies always who are just like, ‘Hey, what’s up!’ and I practice my Spanish with them…They know me.” – Olivia K
