Exactly what I was looking for~! n.n
A hearty sandwich packed with the taste of Cuba.
*note: the chef had previously cooked in Havana for 15 years
Earlier tonight, my best friend and I dropped in half an hour before close to grab a bite. This restaurant was strongly recommended by another friend.
*note: this restaurant has only been open for 4 months
The pulled pork sandwich that we chose to share was incredibly delicious. The pork is well seasoned and perfectly paired with a refreshing slaw, generously packed between a burger bun. :)
The fries are cooked to perfection with a light seasoning and the perfect balance between crunchy exterior and potato-ey interior!
^^ Sandwich and fries for $10, a portion to feed two of myself, very VERY worth it n.n
Sorry to say, but I wasn't too fond of the milk'n cookies churros sundae. The churros on top was great, but the ice-cream was overly sweet (even for me, and I love sugar) and had a sandy texture from perhaps ice or sugar. The cookie and cookie dough bits were too obviously packaged. :(
However, this small family-owned joint is a polished gem in the middle of a food-lined street, Steeles Ave. The owner was very very friendly and I will be sure to return with friends and try their other dishes! n.n
*note: the landlord had told the owner that the gas at the station in the same plaza (some sketchy small gas station brand) comes from the same distributor as PetroCanada, whereas the price is notably lower......interesting :P
