1958
A year full of nostalgia, memories and contradictions…
It was the last year that the Cuban people existed as a whole on the island.
Since then, more than 1 million Cubans have taken to the roads of the world looking for a new home.
We came to New Jersey and made it our home. Here we raised our children who now have children of their own. We have preserved the heritage given to us by our forefathers.
Here at 1958 Cuban Cuisine, we would like to share with you some of that heritage: our delicious food, our intoxicating music and some of our magnificent sights.
