This is a fast-casual Cuban cafe, the kind where you order at the counter and eat a medianoche at your desk by 12:30. The recipes started as a grandmother's and now run to nearly ten locations around Jacksonville. The fried queso blanco cubes with guava sauce disappear fast, so the kitchen keeps re-baking pastelitos, which are hard to find elsewhere in town. Iced café con leche is the move, and the guava matcha is for the brave.

Queso frito bites
“The queso frito bites—fried cubes of salty queso blanco paired with a juicy guava sauce—and a selection of traditional pastelitos, which are otherwise hard to find in Jacksonville, sell out quickly and prompt frequent re-baking sessions.”
