nd what’s not to love? The hot Cuban sun, gorgeous strips of beaches, dancers with agile hips and lively music keep memories of Cuba fresh and pleasurable in my mind. I don’t remember much about the food, though, except that it made me violently ill for two days out of my ten day vacation. I’m sure the good people at Amor Cubano will rectify my experience.

Vivian Baquero and Maricela Calcines are the owners of Amor Cubano, hailing straight from the homeland themselves. When the average main goes for only $16 this forty-five seat eatery is sure to be packed nightly so book your reservation now. –J.T.
