The inaugural menu features main courses (expected not to top $10) such as pernil asado (roasted leg of pork, marinated with garlic and oregano base sofrito), biftec encebolado (sauteed steak with caramelized onions), and pechuga encebollada (pounded chicken breast sauteed with caramelized onions); and sandwiches including Cubano (roasted pork, sweet ham, pickles, mustard, and Swiss) and berenjena (grilled, marinated eggplant). There will also be salads such as aguacate con yuca al mojo (avocado with cassava and onion garlic mojo) and camarones (shrimp marinated in creamy garlic sauce) as well as sides like maduros (sweet plantains) and the vegan habichuelas blancas (white beans in sofrito base with potato and calabaza).
Sounds like another good reason to avoid the McDonalds up the block.
