CAFE LA CLAVE – Mexican
A working Hialeah counter on East 47th Street, where Cuban home cooking is priced for the lunch rush and every plate lands with two sides you choose yourself: white or yellow rice, sweet plantains, fried yuca, black beans, lentil soup, chickpeas or split peas. Churrasco and oxtail anchor the board; imperial rice, chicken cordon bleu, fried chicken and shrimp fill it out. Mornings open with Cuban breakfast plates and breakfast sandwiches, chicken soup by the cup, flan for afterwards. Batidos and milkshakes come either way. Quick, generous and unfussy, it does what a good neighbourhood cafeteria is supposed to do.
