Mangu or called (the 3 hits) is originally from my home country, the Dominican Republic. This dish has a very special meaning for me because it is what I ate the most in my country and what my mother made the most for dinner. This dish is historically very important in DR because it is only made in my country and many cultures only go to the DR to eat the famous Dominican dish.
