Tampa Cubano
What's on it?: Smoked ham, adobo pork, Genoa salami, Swiss cheese, dill pickle and a "liberal moistening of mojo mustard" served on "very crisp and crusty" Cuban bread
The Inspiration: In Tampa, Cuban immigrants mixed with other immigrants – like Italians. The addition of Genoa salami to the classic Cuban sandwich is an ingredient that's missing in the Miami version of the sandwich. Miami's mayor might say, oddly, that salami belongs on pizza – but its salty greasiness is the perfect foil for mustard, pickle, and Swiss cheese. At Pambiche we serve both the Miami and Tampa versions, which one do you prefer?
