ea Restaurant Serving Guinea Pigs Opens in New York City By www.neatorama.com Published On :: Wed, 13 Nov 2024 07:50:43 -0800 The New York Post reports that an Ecuadorian restaurant has opened in the Corona neighborhood of Queens. Le Casa Del Guy -- "the house of the guinea pig" -- has become famous for its focus on a staple of Ecuadorian cuisine: the guinea pig.Guinea pigs raised for food are usually larger than those raised to be pets, weighing about two and a half pounds and measuring sixteen inches long. They can be quite expensive, sometimes over $100 a plate. That's because the restaurant management has to have the guinea pigs shipped from Ecuador then inspected. It might be cheaper to raise them domestically.-via Dave Barry | Photo: La Casa del Cuy Full Article
