I like a good cuban sandwich ! I'm in FL and it's the first time I've tried it. I know there is a good Cuban restaurant out there somewhere nearby that makes them but sadly the best one I've had was at my work cafeteria. However, it was made by latin chefs! mmmmm! I know it's not traditional but I also like the one at Panera Bread for a quick fix with a cup of broccoli cheddar soup. There it is made like a panini.

We have a sandwich shop named Relish that does their version of a cuban-- its pretty good.

cubano especial--chipotle roasted pork, honey ham, swiss cheese, dill pickle, chipotle mayo on a baguette.

You and ruff are killing me with the Cuban sandwiches right now.

*sigh*

Does anyone have a recipe for Cuban bread? I may need to bake some.

The Cuban foods that I have had were delicious. Cant think of any that featured fruit though I would be open to that. Especially if it involves mashed sweet plantains..love those. Especially in Pastelles popular in Puerto Rico and Trinidad and likely many other places that I am not aware of.

The Cuban sandwiches that were mentioned earlier are comfort food found in many Cuban cafe's, and markets. The "Cuban" as it is called is making a huge showing all over this country as more and more people get into the pannini press and look for ways to use it. If you like pork and ham, its a good sandwich.

What is a French meet pie?

I am learning so much in this thread.

I DONT REALLY EAT PORK ANYMORE....BUT I WOULD TRY IT AT LEAST ONCE...and i loveyee sweet taters.....they are prevalent in african cooking also... i just bake em and throw some sea salt on...done diddly..they carry themselves....
french meat pie...is basically the same filling i remember my memere making for thanksgiving. its a combination of hamburger, salt pork and i believe sausage. then add mashed potatoes and spices..throw it in a pie crust and freeze them or bake them...around here they sell for big bucks because they are labor intensive...like making golombki and pierogiy....so you make a lot of them...or go in shares with someone else who likes them and pay half the cost of the ingredients and split the yield. we used to do that all the time...and its such a comforting winter meal..serve it with a nice gravy and a veggie....done and done....

Wow fascinating! I never had such a pie. I need to get out more.

Friends do this with Tamales, Ravioli, Pastry, canning, confections such as truffles at holiday time..anytime that an item is well loved and labor intensive it is so good to share that process with others.

There are a few places in the SF bay area that I love for Dim Sum and I see the assembly line of dumplings being made by many hands. It is a very cool cultural event, that in all parts of the world there are foods that are so sought after that we have to make them by the truckload. lol

Hey ruff, if I were you I would be talking to your Chefs at work to see what else they might make for you. Its always a good thing to give feedback to whoever is cooking especially if you love the dish. Sounds like you have a winner there.
