Cuban spot serving thick ham cubans, pan con bistecs
"The ham on this cuban makes us feel like we’re celebrating with a holiday roast. There are at least four to five slices of thick ham stacked on top of mustard, crunchy pickles, pork, and gooey swiss cheese. If this sandwich was a cat it’d be a chonker, and its veterinarian would be telling you to stop feeding it so much ham. If you’re here with a friend, get the Elena Ruz and go half-and-half." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo, mariana trabanino
"This one is for all the sweet tooths out there. There’s so much strawberry jam on this sandwich, it slips and slides between your fingers. That’s not a bad thing if you’re willing to get a little dirty. Rinconcito Superlatino III is at the end of the Old Cutler bike trail, so their elena ruz is the perfect sandwich to order at their ventanita and pop into the back of your cycling jersey before you get back on the trail. Don’t worry, they wrap it up tightly, so no one’s going to think you’re bleeding out strawberry jam." - virginia otazo, mariana trabanino
"El Rinconcito Super Latino III is a mouthful, and there are a confusing amount of Cuban rinconcitos in Miami. But this is our favorite. It’s a small spot with a few tables that serves one of the best pan con bistecs in the city. The meat is juicy, the bread is springy, and the vinegar and onions tie it all together. Their great vaca frita also comes with a ton of limes, which you won’t actually need because the mojo onions provide more than enough flavor. If you’re in a rush, you can order all of the above at the ventanita." - virginia otazo
"This vaca frita glistens like Fabio in a ‘90s canola butter commercial. It’s a beautiful, tangled mess of meat covered in mojo and sauteed onions that are slightly browned around the edges. They give you plenty of lime wedges, but you won’t need them. The intense mojo brightens up the seared flank steak all on its own." - virginia otazo
"Yes, El Rinconcito Super Latino III is a mouthful, and there are a confusing amount of rinconcitos in Miami. But when it comes to Cuban rinconcitos, this is our favorite. It’s a small spot with a few tables that serves one of the best pan con bistecs in the city. The meat is cooked perfectly, the bread is toasted and springy, and the vinegar and onions tie it all together. Their vaca frita is also tender and comes with a ton of limes, which you won’t actually need because the mojo onions mixed with the crispy beef provide more than enough flavor. If you’re in a rush, you can also order all of the above at the ventanita." - Virginia Otazo
