Always Start with a Cortadito at Chug\u2019s<\/strong><\/h2>\n

I like to get a head start on my day and usually arrive just as they open. The cortadito<\/a><\/strong> and cafe con leche, made with Counter Culture Coffee<\/em>, is second to none. They consistently nail it when I ask for my cafe con leche\u00a0oscuro\u00a0(heavy on the coffee<\/em>).<\/p>\n

The Miami-famous Pastelito Papi<\/a><\/strong> always has an array of his tasty pastries in their warming tray, along with other goodies like croquetas. The breakfast<\/a><\/strong> and scrambled sandwiches<\/a><\/strong> are my go-to foods whenever I\u2019m here. It\u2019s always a tough decision to make between them.<\/p>\n

The scramble features scrambled eggs and gouda cheese on pressed Cuban bread with Sazon completa<\/em> buttering the top of the sandwich<\/strong>. That is my all-time favorite sammy at Chug\u2019s Diner<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

My previous love was the breakfast<\/a><\/strong> sandwich<\/a><\/strong>, which included a fried egg, Taylor ham, cheese, julienne potatoes, and Duke\u2019s mayo on a Cuban roll. But trust me, there are hard times when I need to pick.<\/p>\n

My Favorites at Chug\u2019s Diner<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Other standouts include the phenomenal Cast Iron Pancake<\/strong><\/a><\/em> and the mindblowing Beltran\u2019s Bacon<\/em>, two thick slabs of the good stuff.<\/p>\n

Whatever you do, do not miss out on the Frita Patty Melt<\/strong>, because this fella is a game changer. We\u2019re talking a frita<\/strong> patty of rye bread with Swiss cheese, caramelized onions, papitas, and 1000 Island dressing.<\/p>\n

I skipped out on discussing one of the essential things in the world of Burger Beast<\/strong>: burgers. The reason? Chug\u2019s Diner<\/strong> is part of Chef Michael Beltran<\/em>\u2018s empire of restaurants that embrace South Florida.<\/p>\n

I first tried his Chug Burger<\/em> at his restaurant,\u00a0Ariete<\/strong>\u00a0(just down the street from\u00a0Chug\u2019s Diner<\/strong><\/em>). The exceptional\u00a0Chug Burger<\/em> is now\u00a0<\/span>on the Chug\u2019s Diner<\/strong> menu. It\u2019s a must for any true burger fans.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
