1) Mofongo - this carribean dish consists of fried mashed plantains which are seasoned and filled with anything from seafood to pork belly, commonly overloaded with a garlicy sauce.*
2) Plantains - in some form or another accompanies every meal.
3) Fried food - almost everything you order is fried, even though it might not be specified as such.
(*While I clearly state that mofongo is derived from the plantain, it needs to be it's own category. Mofongo with a plantain side is quite common.)
