Cuban-style Pizza and Speghetti - Little Cuba in New Jersey
I was curious on why there was no official Little Cuba in NYC. After my trip to Miami 2 weekends ago, I was looking for fresh Cuban food and, to my surprise, I found out that right across the water in Bergen, NJ, there was a massive Cuban community.
For 2 miles on Bergenline Street, starting from Jose Marti Field all the way up to Racetrack Section, lies dozens upon dozens of Cuban eateries and bakeries
Just like every country has their own style of Pizza, La Burana specializes in Cuban style Pizza and Speghetti. The pizza was distinct enough to stand out as it’s own genre. What makes the pizza here different than American style is that the toppings are mixed into the pizza while cooking instead of just being sprayed on top
There are only 2 specialized Cuban Pizza spots, with this one being the newer and smaller in the neighborhood
The owners are recent immigrants from Havana and their honor of authenticity was enough to make me order a king’s worth of food
This place was probably the most affordable place I’ve been to: $6 for entire customized pan pizzes, $5 for a massive plate of speghetti, and $1 fresh scoops of ice cream. My total bill came iut to $20 and that was enough to feed me for 3-4 full meals
