Cuban Coffee in Key West (Lisa)



I know it doesn't look like much, but Sandy's Cafe (located inside the M&M Laundromat) is a little slice of heaven. There's a crowd every morning, lining up for cafe con leche and Cuban toast and sandwiches. (And for the the hard core addicts, "buchi" - a tiny little cup with a concentrated "shot" of thick coffee.)

Who knew that fourteen years of memories could be concentrated in one styrofoam cup of steaming hot Cuban coffee? I swear, tears came to my eyes with the first sip. Anthony and I took our coffees (and egg/cheese/lettuce/tomato/mayo/on Cuban bread sandwiches) down to the beach to watch a storm come in. It was paradise........
