By Charles Towne
My dear old mama was an exemplary cook! I mean, she could make a plate of wild greens and freshly caught fish please the most particular palate. And fried chicken? Oh yeah!
I said all that to let you know that the term “finger-lickin’ good” didn’t originate with some rascally reprobate that called himself a "colonel" down south somewhere and also to let you know that I know good food when I taste it!
Several years ago, I was introduced to Heber’s Cuban Cafe located on Hwy. 436 in Apopka Florida.
To be honest with you, I didn’t have any idea what a treat I was in for, but wow, a treat it was, and a treat it continues to be!
I have never been much of a coffee drinker, but if you are like me and you want a real treat, order a large cup of Heber’s café de leche and sit there and sip it, close your eyes, and enjoy!
I want you to know the folks at Heber's Cuban restaurant know how to make an espresso machine do what it was designed to do. Yes, they do!
And did I mention the service?
Yes! You are in for a treat with the service at Heber’s Cuban restaurant, especially if Alexandro or Erles are your servers. These young men go out of their way to make your visit so pleasant it will bring you back time and again.
And did I mention the food?
Make your choice from a broad selection, sip your coffee, and relax in a friendly atmosphere. I know you will enjoy it! Chaz
Lord, please bless this food and the people that serve us. Amen.
