On the Grid : Versailles

"Whenever there's any socio-political event taking place in Miami related to Cuba (especially rumors of Castro's death) people converge upon Versailles. Whether it's protesting topics on the street with signs or over a café at "La Ventanita" (The Window), Versailles is the city's soap box where people voice their political opinions. I visit "La Ventanita" regularly to people watch and listen to discussions—but most importantly—to have the best "Cortadito" in Miami. When you arrive, ask for a Cortadito in a "tasa" (ceramic cup) with "leche evaporada" (evaporated milk). Other notable menu items include Croquetas and Pastelitos de Guayaba. If your stomach fancies larger portions, walk over to the restaurant and enjoy one of the many, classic cuban dishes. In the movie "Chef", it is here that Jon Favreau gains inspiration for his Cuban Sandwich. If you're still not satisfied, be sure to visit the bakery where you can get a plethora of goods to take back to your family and friends." - Colada Collective
