We don't get a lot of Cuban places in the desert, but when we do it's always a treat. Mimita's is my new favorite joint (of any kind). First visit: we ordered the yuca fries as an appetizer. I love these things. Fried cassava is an excellent alternative to potatoes. For an entree I had the legendary Cuban sandwich, and it was as good as I've had. The pulled pork used in this sandwich, and presumably in other dishes, is citrus marinated and very juicy. My mom had Camarones Enchilados: shrimp in a mild red sauce. Very nice. For our second visit, we started with the Papas Rellenas: balls of deep fried mashed potatoes stuffed with picadillo. I loved the picadillo. For entrees I had to have the Cuabn sandwich again (I promise to try something else next time) as did my Mom. She enjoyed it very much. I couldn't finish my sandwich this time and five hours later I had a delicious snack! The service has always been prompt and gracious and quite tolerant of my rambunctious young'un.
