Roast pork, ham, Swiss, pickle and mustard pressed flat in Cuban bread until the crust shatters. Key West calls it a mix, not a Cubano, and it is a grocery-counter lunch rather than a restaurant plate.
Cuban cigar workers crossed from Havana to Key West from the 1860s and made the island a cigar capital before the industry moved on to Tampa. What stayed behind was the food: the pressed sandwich, the coffee window, the bakery bread. In Key West the sandwich is ordered as a mix, and the places that make it best are corner groceries rather than restaurants. 5 Brothers Grocery has pressed them at Southard and Grinnell since 1978 and is the counter the island sends you to for a mix, and Sandy's Cafe works from a window attached to a working laundromat on White Street.
