Cuban Sandwich

A Tampa treasure, the Cuban Sandwich was first crafted in Ybor City in the late 1890s, enjoyed by the city’s cigar workers. Each ingredient reflects an immigrant’s influence: Spanish ham, Sicilian salami, Cuban roast pork, German and Jewish Swiss cheese, pickles and mustard — layered on La Segunda Cuban bread. We follow Casimiro Hernandez, Sr.’s original 1915 recipe, pressed and brushed with butter for a crispy finish.
