UTK is know as "Soncocho" in Puerto Plata. For us, it represents a clear picture of the biblical community. The Bible tells us that the Church is one body made of many members. Sancocho is a great visual of that truth. Each pot is unique depending on the ingredients, but it is always rich in flavor and satisfying.
