11 a.m. LATIN AMERICAN STREET FOOD!! Pan con Bistec & Queso Frito in Miami, Florida!!

Did you know that Miami is one of the most influential Latin American hubs in the world? It’s home to diverse people from all over Latin America, so of course, Latin American cuisine is a staple here. Come with me as I eat 11am Latin American street food at the La Jama TV food truck!
I’d be eating everything from pan con bistec (steak sandwiches) to elote to fried cheese! Inside the truck, I met up with my friends Jason and Frankie, who jumped right into it.
👕 DAVID’S BEEN HERE MERCH: teespring.com/stores/davids-b...
The first order of business was toasting some Cuban bread and grilling some ribeye steak with some onions and mozzarella cheese. They put fresh lettuce, tomatoes, cilantro aioli, fritas, and cotija cheese on the sandwich!
Then, they worked on the Smash Burger, which is a 100% beef burger on a toasted brioche bun. It’s called a smash burger because they smash the patty, making it really thin! They top it with cheddar cheese, grilled mushrooms, grilled onions., chipotle mayo, and cotija cheese.
Next were some fries and an elote bowl, which they take off the cob and add lemon, crema, tajin, sriracha powder, cilantro, and cotija cheese.
Then, Frankie started building their shrimp po’boy. First, he grilled the shrimp with some basil, oil, and vinegar. Then, he added them to the bun, added pico de gallo, cilantro aioli, pineapple, chipotle aioli, honey, cilantro, and cotija cheese!
Their fried cheese is cubed white cheese that they deep-fry until it’s golden brown. Then, they top it with guava sauce, cotija cheese, and cilantro.
He also made some cubed pineapple and added some basil mango lemonade, mango chamoy, cilantro, and tajin. Then, they added a straw coated in tamarind and tajin.
Then, it was time for Jason and I to eat! We started with the pan con bistec. I’ve grown up eating them. The bun is fluffy, the meat is tender, and there’s some crunchiness from the fritas and lettuce. It’s so creamy, and the ultimate Cuban steak sandwich!
The Nicaraguan queso frito had a nice crust on the outside and was smooth on the inside. I loved the guava sauce on the outside. Guava and cheese is always an amazing combination.
Next was the elote bowl, which was fresh and creamy. I loved the way the creaminess balanced out the spiciness. The smash burger was so big, the cheese was dripping out the side! It was one of my favorite cheeseburgers.
The shrimp po’boy was succulent and chunky, and went well with the basil aioli, pineapple, and fluffy bread. The spiced fruit cocktail was nice and refreshing. I loved the spices of the tajin.
Then, Frankie brought us some flan! It was so incredible. It was thick and dense and melted in my mouth! Everyone has their own recipe for flan. It’s so rich and decadent!

[@asiminabilitsis5594]

Congratulations on another great video! I’ve been following you for a few years now and I would just like to offer some advice. When describing food you tend to talk mainly about the textures and the salty, sweet or spicy flavors. I would love to hear more about which spices and herbs you taste, which vegetable, fruit or meat hits your taste buds first. It helps me experience what you’re experiencing. Knowing that the food is good, delicious, amazing, decadent… doesn’t give me any idea of what it tastes like.Keep up the good work and I hope to experience more international foods through your taste buds. ❤️

[@tanyasen.2783]

Yes David, that is their version of our Trini Pineapple chow.

i am an indian guy living in Canada since 2020, and I must say, I literally cry watching your videos man, I do get the point that I can just eat indian food here in a restaurant, but the way you go out on the streets in INDIA and try local food, that just makes me homesick bro, LOL ! BIG FAN of your work though.

[@crystalsylvester4643]

Wow David another great video! I love your version of pineapple chow, especially with the picarindo on a stick. Lol!

Video is awesome. Glad to see that Trinidad is always on your mind re when you mentioned Trini chow. You really need to go back for carnival (born out of the abolition of slavery), and if you plan a third trip, go back for Christmas to experience another one of our cultures. I really enjoy these videos and the people are so accommodating and nice. I see that Kerala is coming up soon so I am looking forward to it. In the meantime, stay healthy.

He needs a hair net for wonderful beard though.

[@rockmusick]

Why does the cooker have a long beard and the waiters have to remove all their beards? Sometimes they say it's unhygienic

[@v9237]

I’m tempted to try the food, but you can’t be a chef in the food industry with a beard that long! How hard is it to wear a hair net over your beard??? The last thing I want is a black pubic looking hair in my food.

[@LaJamaTV]

Never happens!! No hair In the food ever. Come try us

[@roadcoadog]

Cross contamination all the way... the same gloves he touch meat with, then pickup ready to eat salad.

[@LaJamaTV]

Chef changes gloves constantly. You’re seeing edited version

[@roadcoadog]

@@LaJamaTV Okay makes sense, i have a Restaurant and i'm seeing 1M things, not at your business but all the different videos i see.

[@canadianmoose9010]

Hope he's changing gloves between raw meat and seafood. He can make a lot of people sick.

[@betherickson8030]

I like your videos but I feel you are not listening to the people that are with you or who you are interviewing and run over all of them with your opinion. Even other bloggers. Watch your past videos. Starting to get a little ego
