ROPA VIEJA

Ropa Vieja is the most authentic dish across the island of Cuba. The Most Classic of Cuban Dishes! Made from an old Family Recipe (Shredded beef marinated with green bell peppers, onions, garlic, and Caribbean seasoning). Like many great parts of Cuban culture, ropa vieja started life in Spain. Its name literally translates to 'old clothes' and the story goes that a penniless old man once shredded and cooked his own clothes because he could not afford food for his family. He prayed over the bubbling concoction and a miracle occurred, turning the mixture into a tasty, rich meat stew.
