The Mish seems to be a meat lover’s paradise. I walked into this corner store called “That’s it” in order to get a bottle of Coca-cola. What I found was a nice lady at a counter frying up some tasty looking food. Looking back at the sign, I should have guessed.
Phone Cards, Liquor, ATM, Deli, Sandwiches, Coffee, World Largest Tortas Cubana, and that's it?
A Torta Cubana is a sandwich. It’s a big sandwich. It’s a gigantic sandwich. And this modestly named corner store claims to have the “World Biggest.” In the sammy you will find: breaded steak, hot dog(s), bacon, fried eggs, cheese, ham, chorizo (Mexican sauce, ew!), sour cream, extra-thick mayonnaise, jalapenos and who knows what else. Sound disgusting? Maybe so. But if you’re a meat lover, it might be hard for you to resist. So come on down to THAT’S IT and bring a friend. You’ll need them to help you eat it or to carry you home.
For reference, this plate is 14 inches across and the hot sauce bottle is a foot high.
If the Torta Cubana sounds like too much for you, they also offer deep fried quesadillas.
