Thank you friends for the opportunity to serve you. It has been our pleasure and honor.

Patrons of the restaurant, which closed permanently last week after six years on West Main Street in Durham, lingered as they said goodbye.

Life's too short to go another day without trying this 😍 Fried Pork Belly - A house favorite! Chef Roberto takes pasture-raised pork belly and cuts it into small pieces before seasoning it with our dry brine. Just before serving it to you, the pork bell is deep fried in lard, and served with our housemade Papa Bull Sauce for an extra kick.

We are saddened to learn of the death of our friend Gonzalo de Armas, affectionately known as Don Gonzalo. Our deepest condolences go to his beloved widow, Teresa Fernandez Rodriguez and their family.

We first met Don Gonzalo at Old Havana Sandwich Shop where he would come regularly for a traditional plate of rice, beans, pork and maduros with a glass of wine, finished off with a cafecito… por supuesto.

He quickly became more than a faithful guest… he was a beloved friend, full of good stories and warmth.

May you rest in peace, amigo. We raise a glass in your memory; you are never absent from our hearts.
