TONIGHT I enjoyed Dinner with a good friend of mine at Mario’s Latin Café – right in the heart of Homestead on Useless-One at NE 11TH Street (SW 308TH Street). It’s the first time that I’ve eaten there in several years, but we all know that this dude, his brother, his brother’s wife, his wife, his Mom, and his Dad all hang out there on a regular basis because they love it there ! 😮
I enjoyed the mother of all MASSIVE meals big and small consisting of Milanesa De Pollo (breaded chicken with ham, marinara sauce, and melted cheese), 3 mashed potato scoops, and 4 large sweet plantains. Ice water, cold Sprite, and hot buttered breadsticks complemented the MASSIVE meal nicely. Customer service was friendly and borderline outstanding. Hot foods were hot. Cold drinks were cold. I surely enjoyed my culinary experience there, and I certainly enjoyed hanging out with Tammy again !
I can probably count on one hand the number of times I’ve actually eaten at Mario’s since it opened for business. I think that I need to eat there more often. I just need to go there at the end of a hunger strike (due to their ENORMOUS portions). I’ve heard that Breakfast there is delightful !

They do believe in BIG portions!! I could not eat there all the time, unless I starve all day.
I love me some Mario’s bread. In fact, the girls and I recently started making our own “Mario’s bread” right in the comfort of our own home. Kourtney even said we should put a sign on our door and tell people they could buy it from us.
Ingredients: bread (of any kind including loaf bread or hot dog buns), butter, and garlic.
Directions: lather the bread with as much butter as you can fit, sprinkle with garlic, fry on the stove.
Poof, delicious Mario’s bread. Perfect with any meal.
