LA PERLA DEL SUR – Mexican
Flagami's everyday Cuban kitchen, open from seven in the morning on West Flagler Street and named for Cienfuegos, the pearl of Cuba's south coast. The cooking is home-style and unhurried: churrasco grilled over charcoal, ropa vieja shredded soft and sent out with white rice and sweet plantains, bistec de palomilla, filete de cerdo, thin pork chops smothered in onions. Order a mango batido alongside. Regulars mention the portions and the prices before anything else — no frills, no theatre, plates that arrive full. Cuban food the way a Cuban kitchen actually cooks it.
