Yikes! That’s enough food for a small family!
I dislike the mustard that seems to be part of a proper Cubano.
not sure I ever had one with mustard here in NYC. It feels like something that happened to the sandwich after it migrated wih the Cuban diaspora to America. You can always ask them to leave it out!!
I will, if I ever return to Miami, and next time I order one in Toronto!
I’ll take my gravy on the side thank you
(Why why why are soggy bread and soggy fries attractive to anyone vs having the ability to dip)
This is what a Francesinha in a smart place looks like in Portugal… Easier to manage but still quite filling (it’s intended as a full meal in itself)
Not a fan of bread in soup?
If the fries are freshly cooked they should still be crispy enough. And sometimes the sauce is good enough for soaked over dipping. See NOLA style BBQ sauce
This is what my Francesinha in Porto looked like. Thank you for posting a photo.
