From Our Blog:   Island Flare without the Spice with Cuban Cuisine   Most people have never been to Cuba and will never go there. This is because of a conflict which happened decades ago and has created an embargo to this day. The politics of the island may have driven off many of the native Cubans, but it has not stopped the delicious food from making the transition to other countries. Luckily, you do not have to travel through these protected borders to get a... Continue Reading

I love this place because of the great local produce that they have. I think that the first reviewer is mistaking this place with another stand on the same street based upon the description, so do not hesitate in going here.

I have never been treated so terribly. I stopped by here with my SOLDIER IN UNIFORM, my baby and me while he was on leave driving a friend's car.

There is a stand with a bell to ring, which I did several times and four open bags of corn, some bowls and a cash box.

After 15 minutes, I started grabbing a dozen corn thinking they were on the honour system and laying them on the table.

A lady starts screaming at me from the building's doorway "What are you doing?" I replied, "Oh, good, I rang the bell several times..." I didn't get to finish asking how much for a dozen when she screams at me "We are closed, can't you read the sign?"

To which I replied, "Well, there is a cash box here, all these open bags of corn, I was going to leave the money in the box." She replied, "She said, there are no vegetables out, there is no scale." (Like I was supposed to KNOW that all those things would be there ??) To which I replied, "Well, I'm not from around here, so given what I saw out....I was going to leave my money in the cash box....." Once again I was interrupted and she said "Well, I'm sure it's empty, so take your money and go."

So I left the corn I had laid out on their counter, flashed her my $20 and left.

I have never been so rudely treated in my life and I'm now committed to telling everyone not to buy there - it's not worth supporting people who are so mean and rude when you are supporting THEM.
