Food: Cortadito Cuban Cafe

One challenge of trial work is finding decent places to eat around the courthouse. Our team eventually settled on a hole-in-the-wall right across the street, Cortadito Cuban Cafe.  It's a pretty standard sandwich shop with minimal seating, brought to you by Nicaraguan brothers Alberto Valdivia and Jimmy Rivas, the same guys behind Rivales down the street.

I enjoyed the Cuban and Medianoche sandwiches at Cortadito, though they are on the expensive side...almost 15 bucks a pop.  The café con leche was good, too, especially given that the West Palm Beach courthouse's internal cafe hasn't been open for some time.  That said, I've had better Cuban food in my life (the pastries come from Sysco) and the menu is very limited, so if your trial is going longer than a week, you'll need to find other restaurants.
