This is what we had for dinner last night at a Cuban birthday barbeque. A little grotesque to be sure. A typical Cuban fiesta includes a roast pig ("puerco"), which is roasted in a coal barbeque pit for about 10 -12 hours, yuca (root vegetable like potato but more fibrous), Cuban black beans and rice, and some kind of salad. To make sure I wasn't rude, I tried everything. Twice.
It was nice to get out of the (dusty, echo-y and unfurnished) house for a while and meet some new people.
