Don't Call It a Cuban. Sincerely, a Cuban…read more There is a sacred alchemy to a real Sándwich Cubano. It requires crisp, lard-baked Cuban bread pressed paper-thin a la plancha until the crust crackles. It requires yellow mustard to cut the fat, sharp pickles for acid, and molten Swiss cheese acting as the crucial binding agent between roast pork and ham. It is a precise, beautiful piece of culinary history. What was served to me here is an absolute crime against my heritage. Look at this plate: soft, pillow-like Hawaiian rolls stuffed with shredded pork, leafy greens, and a thin vinaigrette. It hasn't seen the heat of a press in its entire existence. There is no mustard, no pickles, no ham, and not a single drop of melted Swiss cheese binding anything together. This is not a Cuban sandwich. It is a pulled pork slider on a dinner roll. And it would have been a pretty decent one on that merit. However, slapping the name "Cuban" on a Southern pulled pork slider because someone threw pulled pork on a bun is lazy, dishonest, and insulting to the culture it claims to represent. Call it what it actually is on the menu, you are ruining what some people will think is an actual Cuban. Or... maybe hire a Cuban and learn how to make the real thing. A four paragraph AI response? Look. There is a stool in Havana, or Tampa, or a fluorescent-lit ventanita in Hialeah at two in the morning, where a man who has done this ten thousand times takes bread baked with lard that morning, lays it open, and builds something with no wasted motion. Mustard. Pickle. Ham. Pork. Swiss. He puts it under a press that has been hot since 1961 and he leans on it. The crust goes to glass. The cheese surrenders. You get it in butcher paper and you eat it standing up, maybe with a few fried ripe plantains (not kettle chips) and you don't talk for ninety seconds. That sandwich is not a concept. It is not an interpretation. It is not an exploration of a broader range of anything. It is years of exile, hunger, cigar smoke, and stubborn people refusing to forget what home tasted like, compressed under a hot iron into something you can hold in one hand. What you served me is a pulled pork slider with fruit on it. And look -- I ate it. For what it was, it was good. Smoked pork, mango, mint, pickled onion, a soft milk bun: that's a nice sandwich on a summer afternoon and I don't begrudge anybody a nice sandwich. But you didn't have the nerve to sell it on its own merits. You reached across an ocean, took a word that people bled for, and stapled it to the front for the traffic. Call it Mojo Pulled Pork. Call it Caribbean Gold. Call it anything true. The sandwich is alright it's a 6.25. It's the word from a culture that's stolen. A real Cuban mixto would beat down this sandwich with a 1st bite knockout.

FOR A PLACE BUILT AROUND BURGERS/DOGS THIS WAS JUST SAD…read more Maybe try a hot dog or something. I don't know, but my burger was a monumental dud. It was served on an egg white coated brioche bun which gave it a somewhat leathery texture on the outside, soft on the inside. It came with a pickle slice, one tomato slice, a lettuce leaf, a slice of cheddar cheese, a tiny dollop of mayonnaise (you must ask for a side of ketchup and/or mustard), and the single most boring tasting burger I have had since the little league game I went to last summer. No juice. No flavor. The patty was not hot and tasted as if it were sitting in a warmer for 30 minutes before we came in. The burger came with fries (which we all agreed were the best part of our meals) and it cost $16. NO MILKSHAKES OFFERED, which given the theme of the restaurant is just a horrible oversight. I cannot imagine this place lasting long. So forgettable most people will likely only come here once out of curiosity, then go back to their favorite greasy, oozy, flavor-packed cheeseburger spot for a real burger.

My partner and I stopped in here while we were in Troutdale for the Winter Wonderland event. I…read morehighly recommend checking out this place (and the town as a whole) during the holidays-- the whole Main Street is decorated, and it seems like every business is on board. Walking into the Soda Shop, it feels like a kid's daydream. There was candy and souvenirs everywhere, a big ice cream counter, and, of course, the soda shop. I noticed that they also sell food here-- it smelled amazing and I would definitely give it a try if I came again. Ordering was easy, and the young man behind the counter was really helpful-- I had never been to a soda hop before, so I had some questions about the options. He did not make me feel silly for having questions, and he did a good job of both training his coworker and being attentive to the line at the same time. I ordered a sugar free salted caramel soda (there were so many sugar free options!!!) It was delightful. I was a little apprehensive that it would actually taste like the flavor, but I was pleasantly surprised. The price point is higher than you would pay for a normal soda, but I think that the novelty of the experience is worth it. We had a great time, and would definitely return (I want to see the upper level, too-- that was closed for a private event when we stopped in).
