Vermin: I acknowledged in the post that most of this hype has been generated by LTH; they usually are the first to find these places (and sometimes blow them out of proportion).

I'm in El Cubanito right now waiting for my sandwich... Pretty crowded, but since I'm the only English speaker here I suspect its not yet the Chicagoist effect.

LTH had it first...jeez! I would accept this stuff from Gapers Block but not from you guys!

When they were open for lunch, May Street Café had an amazing Cuban sandwich, now I have to trek up north for one.

I've always wanted to try one of these but i never have. I love pork, I love mustard, I love pickles. what is taking me so long?

Looks like Fresh and tender Lincoln Park raised pink baby with Mayonnaise sause, onions on a toasted bun

Martha Bayne at the Food Chain weighed in on it yesterday, and frequent Chicagoist reader Wes Sabi in the comments that it's breakfast where they're most packed. Still, if you can, call it in just to be safe.

I know where I'm heading for lunch today! I love Cuban sandwiches and I think it's close enough to work that I can make it there and back in time...
