Glenn: The Cubans really got it right when they invented Cuban bread.

Jorge: With a crisp crust on the outside and a lightly textured inside, a warm, fresh- baked loaf of Cuban bread is the next best thing to heaven.

Glenn: Although there are some limited areas of the country where you can get a decent loaf of Cuban bread...

Jorge: ...cities like Chicago and Union City New Jersey...

Glenn: ...the best Cuban bread is made in South Florida. In fact, the "Cuban Bread Line" (the Mason Dixon line of Cuban pastry) stretches across the state just north of Tampa.

Raúl: If you go anywhere north of the Cuban Bread Line you have two chances of getting a decent loaf: slim and none.

Jorge: Yes, you can find Cuban bread at practically every supermarket in Miami. However, the big chain groceries have never quite gotten it right.

Glenn: Although these store-made loaves will do in a pinch, the only place to get the real thing is from a Cuban bread bakery.

Jorge: We especially like the bread from the San Lago Bakery. They have Cuban bread baking down to an art.

Glenn: Remember, Cuban bread is best when it is eaten on the same day that it is made.

Jorge: There are no preservatives!

Glenn: Pick up a couple of loaves in the morning when the bread is still hot. A little butter, some fresh squeezed orange juice or Cuban coffee and you have a delicious low-cost breakfast.
