Cubana

What can you say about Cubana that hasn’t already be written, eh? Fact is, if you’re a Sheffielder, the Trippet Lane bar/eatery will probably be on your list of favourite establishments given that it’s impossible to have a bad night out there.

Famed for their vibrant atmosphere, welcoming staff, live music and salsa, they consistently win award after award... and you can’t argue that they’re deserved. We’re here for their renowned tapas.
 

The Food

Previously, we’ve plumped for the set menu here. £17.95 gets you eleven little plates of heaven. Can’t fault it. On this occasion though, it’s decided, we’ll go for three dishes apiece. After kicking off proceedings with a couple of shots of 1800 Anejo Tequila, we peruse the considerable menu. I plump for Feijoada (tender diced pork, smoked bacon, spicy chorizo sausage & black beans in a rich tomato & white wine sauce), Albondigas (meatballs) and Chorizo, while my cohort gets involved with the Res y cebolla (thinly sliced tender sirloin steak sautéed with sweet caramelised red onions), Gambas tigres (Tiger prawns wrapped in filo pastry) and Jamón y queso de cabra (oven baked basket of Serrano ham topped with goats cheese). A feast fit for a king.
 

The Verdict

The food at Cubana echoes the place itself: full of variety and flawless. Whether you’re heading out for a bite to eat, a relaxed drink, or simply need to bust loose with a few Latin moves, Cubana doesn’t just deliver, it excels. As the adage goes, it’s not so much what you do, it’s how you do it. Ace.
