The Floridian Cuban Sandwiches

by

Greetings everyone, finally got a break from school to post up our favorite place to go for cuban sandwiches in Treasure Island, Fl. The classic sandwich we usually get consists of spiced pork, ham, genoa salami, swiss cheese, mustard, mayo and dill pickles pressed on cuban bread. The result is a thin, crisp man friendly hot sandwich.

Rollbotto Sushi

by

Welcome to the future of sushi. This is the first we’ve heard about a chipotle style sushi place with their method of innovated sushi making. Who doesn’t love personalization? Great location too, right in the heart of downtown St. Petersburg. The foundation of the sushi (rice + nori) is created by a machine, then ingredients are added to your choosing. The overall quality of the sushi is good, fish is fresh, rice seasoned correctly.

This place is pretty new only a few months old but the only quip we have with the place is the price. The rolls are somewhat bigger and for two rolls with our choices, it cost a little over $17. But, this is comparable to our favorite sushi places prices. This may be that we chose the more expensive protein (unagi and yellow tail). Word of mouth is spreading quickly about Rollbotto!
