El Oriental de Cuba corners market on flavors - Miami

In Miami, there’s a place like El Oriental de Cuba on practically every corner and in every strip mall - a spot where neighborhood residents, beat cops, businessmen, and the occasional gringo tourists come for authentic Cuban specialities and tropical fruit drinks.

If you’re looking for a Cuban fix here, you’ll probably head to Jamaica Plain’s El Oriental. The narrow space on the corner of Centre and Paul Gore streets (the sign calls it “la esquina del sabor,” “the corner of flavor”) has been a JP institution since the early ’90s. A fire closed it in July 2005 (arson was suspected) and the restaurant reopened after major renovations and help from the neighborhood and city in October 2006.”*
