Paladar

Today, we grabbed food at Paladar. It's a family owned and operated Cuban restaurant with an incredibly impressive rum bar. Photographs of the family don the walls, and it feels very homey. It's near the Regal Cinemas on Western, so it's a nice dinner before a movie for us.

We started with the Croquettas appetizer with cheese. They were delicious, and served with 3 different dipping sauces.



I ordered the Cuban Sandwich, which is slow roasted pork, ham, Swiss cheese, mustard, and pickles, grill pressed between Cuban bread. I'm a huge fan of Caribbean food, mostly because the meat is always so wonderfully falling-apart tender, and this was one of the best Cuban sandwiches I've ever had. That's a huge compliment.



Service is slow for sure, but it's very nice. It's a popular place with lots of regulars, and the food's great.
