Sampling the ‘Cubano’ Sandwich in Little Havana

The World

The Cubano, or Cuban sandwich, has been a staple of workers’ lunch in Cuba for a century.

The sandwich reached the Florida shores when those workers began migrating to America.

It has since become a regular food item on America’s global menu.

But perhaps no one can put together a “Cubano” like Cuban restaurants in Miami.

Reporter Steve Dolinsky has been sampling a few in Little Havana and gives his recommendations to anchor Lisa Mullins.
