El Cubanito

Description
It seems counter-intuitive, but trust us: You're going to want to eat a sandwich as your entrée at this tiny Cuban joint and then get a second sandwich for dessert. Start with one of the cubanos—the crusty bread grilled to a flaky crunch, the pork and ham complemented by a healthy slathering of mustard—or the ropa vieja sandwich, stuffed with so much succulent beef it's hard to keep the juices contained. But don't fill up: If you miss the pan con timba—warm bread, mild slices of Swiss and a sweet center of guava—you're missing the best part.
