Wanted: Cuban Sandwich

[Jdarg]

While everyone is heaping praise on probably one of the best ,over-looked places around these parts, do partake of the banana- leaf wrapped tamales at El Mercadito. At $3.00 each, all I can say is "how can you sell them so low?"

I love these.

Have guests in town this week and one of them is craving a great Cuban Sandwich. Any ideas for lunch or dinner?

fresh roast pork?? I might be bias but The Cuban at Stinky's Fish Camp is right on time!

Modica

I believe one of the best was a year or two back during the week mornings at the Texaco at Rosemary Beach (30A) and 98. A little guy was there roasting his pig all night serving Cubans all morning. The story is that he drank too much and was not too reliable so he got the boot. Wish I could find him!

Please let me know if any of you know.

Thanks.

Publix has the best Cuban by far cause their Cuban Bread is second to none outside Miami

If you don't mind a bastardized version, the mister has enjoyed Emerald Coast Coffee's cubano pannini at times.

Your palate is suspect sir! For everyone of taste and refinement knows it is the direction in which the pickles are arranged upon the delectable treat that makes for a quality cuban.
