Paseo Caribbean Restaurant - Ballard, WA

Paseo's has created quite a following, regulars insist that the Cuban Roast sandwich is a religious experience, or a craving that is experienced day after day. The love goes on and on.

Everyone agrees that the Cuban Roast is one messy sandwich. It starts with a toasted baguette slathered with aioli (mayo), cilantro, pickled jalapenos, romaine lettuce, carmelized onions, and of course, the pork shoulder that has been marinaded in Paseo's secret reciple and slow roasted until it falls off the bone in succulent morsels. Beware the term "slathered" with aioli mayo is a caution, let's just say it is applied very, very, very liberally and as a result the sandwich does become slippery.

The spiciness of the pork is out of this world and can't be compared to anything else. As one vegetarian stated, "this is one place that makes me want to eat meat." Can't ask for more of a recommendation that that!

Paseo is highly recommended and one of those places that makes sandwiches special and unique.

Paseo is now getting national attention as it has been named the second best sandwich in America on the new TLC television show Best Food Ever. We will of course review the top rated sandwich to begin the comprisons!!
