The Cuban Table
is a comprehensive, contemporary overview of Cuban food, recipes and culture as recounted by serious home cooks and professional chefs, restaurateurs and food writers. Cuban-American food writer Ana Sofia Pelaez and award-winning photographer Ellen Silverman traveled through Cuba, Miami and New York to document and learn about traditional Cuban cooking from a wide range of authentic sources.

Cuban home cooks are fiercely protective of their secrets. Content with a private kind of renown, they demonstrate an elusive turn of hand that transforms simple recipes into bright and memorable meals that draw family and friends to their tables time and again. More than just a list of ingredients or series of steps, Cuban cooks' tricks and touches hide in plain sight, staying within families or being passed down in well-worn copies of old cookbooks largely unread outside of the Cuban community.

Here you'll find documented recipes for everything from iconic Cuban sandwiches to rich stews with Spanish accents and African ingredients, accompanied by details about historical context and insight into cultural nuances. More than a cookbook, The Cuban Table is a celebration of Cuban cooking, culture and cuisine. With stunning photographs throughout and over 110 deliciously authentic recipes this cookbook invites you into one of the Caribbean's most interesting and vibrant cuisines.

Perfect for small spaces

I do like this table. The directions are less than desirable. I have put together MANY pieces of furniture. I put this entire thing together and realized at the end that I had some pieces backwards so the top would not collapse back to coffee table. Luckily when I took it back apart, I did not damage it beyond repair. It looks great and perfect size for my apartment livingroom. Great option to be able to use as a dining table on the rare occasion I need one. Price was right and it is pretty sturdy. Extra storage underneath for books and such.

Wonderful coffee table. Easy to assemble. Very durable, even when the table is fully folded out. Any little touch will leave fingerprints though, so be prepared to clean it a bunch

Cute and easy to use!
It came quickly and the directions were easy to follow! I will say that we used our electric screwdriver instead of the one provided just for when you’re screwing in the hinges— the one they provided was like dull and hard to use for that. But other than that it was seamless putting together. We use it almost everyday for kids schoolwork. I love storing their school books underneath as well. It’s lightweight enough that my kids (6 &7) can set up and put down the table themselves and it’s sturdy when using the full table or the pull up half table. Highly recommend!
