| - Seeing that I can only recall having Cuban food once before this, I guess I really don't have much expertise in this area. However, I was blown away yesterday when my mom, brother & I shared a variety of tastes here. We all shared an appetizer, one of their lunch specials and the Midnight sandwich. Which was definitely more than enough food! You most certaintly get your moneys worth!
While the multiple layers of the sandwich are like a party in your mouth, the slow roasted, tender sliced pork with onions was a tounge-gasim for sure! I can't wait to go back and get this meat all packaged up in the Cuban sandwich form. The appetizer was delicious too, I just can't remember it's name, but it was a shrimp and crab filled fried green plantain. While the crunchy plantain may have been a bit too crunchy for my taste, the filling was so scrumptious that I had no problem finishing that last little piece that no one else wanted to claim, lol. All the sides were pretty tasty too!
We also lucked out that my brothers friend's joined us a little late, because we all got a taste, of perhaps the most amazing fried chicken ever! The breading was light and crispy, and the chicken was oh so tender. Then the cherry on top, he ordered a piece of the Tres Leche cake for everyone to share and one to go. Upon arrival, he decided that one was simply not going to enough to share and ended up eating his to go piece right then. Even though I had originally said no dessert, I once again had no issue with scraping up that last little morsel of this light and lucious cake. I also decided a coffee sounded like the perfect compliment, and the lovely waitress recommended the Cuban espresso. At first I hesitated, but of course, it was simply amazing, the perfect ending to a perfect meal.
