I have to ask this question here as it's about food . One of the standard dishes of Cuba is Black Beans and Rice. All my life I've known it and called it Moros y Christianos.Is it still called that in Cuba or have they too become political correct?
I don't know if it still called that but I love the dish! Ever since I lived in Tampa, FL I have been sold on Cuban food. I had a Cuban housekeeper and she taught me several dishes as well as the Columbian Restaurant downtown. I make traditional Black Bean Soup, White Bean Soup, and Cuban Sandwiches. The foods are very similar to the southern dishes I enjoy here in SC. For the black beans I simmer with ham hocks, garlic powder, and cumin, then serve over white rice garnished with sliced/diced onions and a dollop of sour cream.

Get that pernil out here. If I had known you were holding that back I would have really been pissed.
Pernil was one of my favorites in Venezuela. Put it in an arepa with cheese, or stop at an open air Shawarma-style shop and get a shaved pernil sandwich. Can't beat it!
Show us what you've got.

List of some closer to your home, plus has a bunch of cuban recipes. Cafe Piquet and Rincon Criolla seem to have good reviews. LIST

NEVER, EVER book a hunt with BLAIR WORLDWIDE HUNTING or JEFF BLAIR.
I have come to understand that in hunting, the goal is not the goal but the process.
