"Chef Hector Santiago of El Super Pan is Puerto Rican, but fuses cultures through food at his daytime restaurant in Ponce City Market. “There is no Puerto Rican sandwich,” he said. So at El Super Pan, there’s a Tampa-style Cuban sandwich that pairs well with tostones. Every dish at El Super Pan is served with pique (a Puerto Rican sauce made of chili peppers and herbs in a jar of vinegar) for dipping and until the pandemic, the restaurant even made its bread. Now, General Muir bakes it for them, using Santiago’s original recipe. A meal here should be washed down with a guava agua fresca; while the drink originates in Mexico, the fruit is harvested in Cuba and other parts of the Caribbean." - Allison Ramirez
