One place that I've been meaning to try for a quite a while now is La Unica. We had a brief discussion of it here about it 6 months ago. It's just a little cafeteria in the back of a Cuban market, as unpretentious as can be. Any more comments? > I'm also lookin for a good Cuban bakery...any suggestions? As far as bakeries go, the only thing that comes to mind is the Caribbean American Baking Co. in Rogers Park. I think it's mainly Jamaican but it's possible they may have something you're looking for. Haven't been for a while but I remember thinking their Jamaican patties were lousy but some sort of spice bread was pretty good.
