What happened after Best Thing I Ever Ate?
Kuba Kuba is a counter-service Cuban restaurant in Richmond's Fan District, known for serving Cuban sandwiches, plantains, and breakfast items throughout the day rather than only in the morning. The restaurant's own website, checked September 8, 2026, lists its address as 1601 Park Avenue and posts current hours: 9 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. Monday through Thursday, 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. Friday and Saturday, and 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. Sunday, matching the phone number and address on file. The site notes that Kuba Kuba does not take reservations or online orders and directs customers to visit in person, and it advertises daily specials posted on a board rather than a fixed menu insert. No 2026-dated third-party review or news coverage was checked to independently confirm these details.
