Throw a rock in Miami and, chances are, you'll hit a Cuban restaurant. But if you want to indulge in the kind of quality traditional Cuban cuisine that Mami used to make, head on over to Malanga Cuban Cafe in Pinecrest for this great half-off deal!

 

Malanga Cuban Cafe is the place to enjoy Cuban comfort food in a restaurant named after the most comforting of all Cuban foods! (Got a stomach ache? Eat some mashed malanga -- it will cure all that ails you! Just ask any Cuban mother.) Not only can you enjoy the namesake tuber in a variety of dishes, but you can also feast on the best -- and biggest -- pan con lechon (Cuban pulled pork sandwich) in Pinecrest! While malanga may be in the name, but this restaurant specializes in traditional Cuban pork dishes, from the cochinillo (suckling pig) cooked over a spit on the patio every Saturday to the crunchy ham croquettes that are handmade on the premises daily. In fact all of Malanga's breakfast, lunch, and dinner offerings are made fresh using homemade recipes. And it's not all pork: The menu includes such favorites as palomilla steak, arroz con frijoles (beans and rice), vaca frita de pollo (shredded chicken), pan con bistec (steak sandwich), and luscious desserts including flan, guava cheesecake, and queso blanco con mermelada (white cheese with marmalade)
