My latest Seattlest restaurant post is now up: Paseo Caribbean Food & Catering
This time I feasted on pork and prawn sandwiches and luscious oven roasted chicken.

For some reason, I had no idea this place was here until a friend (who had moved away nonetheless!) introduced me to it a couple weeks back .. Yummy yum. Yes, messy, but I’d return. It’s going to be awhile before I need a goopy mayo fix like that though!
I tried Paseo out a few months back. I have to say I wasn’t too impressed. While yes, the food had some good flavor, I was disappointed with the “pork” in my Pork Sandwich. I guess I was expecting slow roasted, pulled pork but instead got what, to me, seemed like a pork patty one would get in a McRib. Of course I may be a bit jaded due to having Cuban restaurants in my backyard on every corner back in Florida.
Mmmm… it’s one of my favorite places in Seattle, from my limited dining experiences.
Yes Katy, it’s very messy and mayo-y, but worth it!
Jason,
I can see what you mean about the pork if you were expecting something else. I have heard amazing things about the pulled pork sandwich (different from the pork sandwich), so that might be worth trying.
Megwoo!
Where’d you go? I’m so looking forward to a new post.
Sounds delicious! Keep up the good work.
Hi Shauna,

Hiya Meg, I’ve tagged you for the Childhood Memories meme. Hope you haven’t already done it. Cheers.
I have wanted to eat there for ages, thanks for the review. Mmmm.
Rachael, I hope you get to visit Paseo (are you in LA?). It’s really quite good. I’m going back this week to check out the Midnight Cuban sandwich. Stay tuned…
Thanks Chubby Hubby,
It may take me a bit to get the post up, but I love the idea and want to take part. Thanks!
