COLADA CUBAN CAFE – Cuban
Fort Lauderdale's Colada Cuban Cafe runs on cafe con leche and Cuban bread. The bakery case holds guava-and-cheese pastelitos, ham and chorizo croquetas, pan de bono, empanadas and papa rellena; the griddle turns out breakfast sandwiches, avocado toast with chimichurri mash and pico, egg-white omelet platters and a Belgian waffle with crispy chicken. Later the fritas arrive - beef-and-chorizo patties with potato sticks - along with Colada bowls, the Cuban Philly and Abuela's Cocina plates. Order the coffee iced when the Broward afternoon turns heavy. Classics with a twist, done fast and done very properly, from breakfast through the evening.
