They're Bringing Honduran Food to the South Bronx

Omar’s love and pride for The Bronx was clear from the second we walked into @seisvecinos .

A son of Ecuadorian and Honduran immigrants, he grew up eating Central American cuisine throughout his childhood spent in the Soundview area.

When his cousin Jennifer approached him with the idea of opening a restaurant with a focus on Honduran cuisine, he jumped at the opportunity to be involved.

He told us : “I’m just extremely grateful” for Seis Vecinos Restaurant. “I wouldn’t be as close as I am with my family, I wouldn’t be the person I am today, I wouldn’t know this much about my own culture, my own cuisine” without it.

Check out Seis Vecinos:

This guy was born in Seoul and didn’t move to the states till he was 10. His voice and accent aren’t authentic.

Dont understand why people from the bronx keep talking like its the best place to live. Great for you, but the crime statistics and cost of living says otherwise.

Was public school got to do with it? Like cuz NYC public schools usually suck or something? Like only saying cuz that ain't a universal American experience.
