CubanoCubano

CubanoCubano Food Truck

Downtown Lynden just got a bit more worldly  with the grand opening of CubanoCubano!

The food truck provides customers with an selection of Cuban sandwiches, bowls and side dishes including their signature sandwich made with slow-roasted pork shoulder, cured ham, Swiss cheese, yellow mustard and dill pickles, served on fresh Cuban bread. YUM!

The owner and chef, Sean Beanblossom, is from Lynden and has returned to the area after working as the executive chef for Brannon’s Brewery in Portland, Oregon. Beanblossom shares, “Our bread is sourced from a century-old bakery in Miami, Florida that focuses on Cuban bread and baked goods. We are focused on creating the ultimate Cuban experience and being as fresh and authentic as possible!”

The first Cuban food truck in Whatcom County will be stationed at Splash ‘n’ Dash Car Wash at 1850 Front Street in Lynden on Fridays from 11am-2pm, and will also be open right outside of Overflow Taps every Thursday from 5pm-10pm. You can also catch this tasty food truck at special events and festivals this summer including the Stones Throw Brewery grand opening on May 28 in Fairhaven along with the Commercial Street Night Market in Bellingham on June 3.
