Smorgasbord / Priscilla Tsai Pics from Cuba (or really Cuban Pete's Café)
Posted By Priscilla Tsai on Tue, Feb 9, 2010 at 6:36 PM
A trip to Cuban Pete's Café in Plaza Midwood is like taking a vacation to the tropics. Decorated with tiki torches, straw-thatched awnings, and murals of the beach (painted by owner Tony Ortiz himself), you are transported to Cuba as you walk through the doors. A long bar lines the back wall, along with a sangria bar next to it. Thoughtful touches like covering the menu with a collage of Ortiz's family photos add charm to the restaurant. Read more about the restaurant in this previous post. The restaurant has a warm, friendly vibe and the food is tasty. Take a look for yourself.

Dorie Greenspan's Tiramisu Cake
This layered cake is definitely a "pick-me-up" with a little booze and caffeine.

I don't think I'll be making this again, but hey, if you like shallots more than a fat kid likes cake, then go for it.
