Best Peruvian Chicken in Central or No. Jersey?

Hello, I've been craving good pollo a la brasa with yucca and plantains since I left no. Va, where it was all over. They served it with both a green and a garlicky white sauce down there...anyone have suggestions? I love in toms river, but will def travel!

    This might be further south than what you're looking for but the best peruvian I've had in nj is Super Pollo in Brick. So good!
