Now that we have a good coffee maker, when I was traveling through Florida 12 ish years ago, went to a little Cuban place, best coffee ever! Any ideas on where I can get some? :)

There is a little dinner just on the other side of the freeway from the airport in San Juan. Best cup of coffee ever they sell bags of the coffee.

I remember the fist time I heard of Cafe Cubano.
Mentioned many times on MIAMI VICE, 1984 ????
Of course no internet to find out what it was, and not much of a Cuban
community in Milwaukee.

Took me 20 years to find out what it was.

Heinz, now you need to go buy an espresso machine.

Yeah, that got to me just a little too much. I edited it...

To those reading Ted's comment and not understanding, the original title was 'Wear to get good strong coffee'....
