Comforting Cuban Cuisine — Nestled on a hillside between Hackensack Avenue and Route 17, at 525 Moonachie Ave. in Wood- Ridge, is Havana, a restaurant that has brought authentic Cuban cuisine to Bergen County. Havana was founded and is run by Armondo Santana Jr. and his wife, Diana. Both graduates of Memorial High in West New York, (He two moved to Wooa-Ridge four years ago ana began to miss the Cuban food so readily available in Hudson County. Their solution: bringing that great style of eats North. Consequently, Havana uses recipes developed by Santana's grandmother, Susana, and his mom, Merida, with the two women overseeing the food preparation each and every day. W ell known for its Cuban sandwiches (including ham/roasted pork, steak and chicken varieties) and other lunch-time fare, Havana also offers a full line of even more filling complete dinners. W e sampled (from left above) soon-to-be-introduced Cuban Pizza, Jumbo Shrimp Cervici Style (with garlic onion, lime and cilantro sauce), Fricase de Polio (braised Jr s* chicken), with white rice and beons, and two desserts. Flan with Caramel ' 1 sauce and Dulce de Leche (a mixture of cinnamon, milk and vanilla), all of which the Havana staff prepared flawlessly. On Thursday, Sept. 1, the K ' ||M Santanas will debut their Cuban Pizza, made from a recipe used at Ray's Pizza in Miami. Cuban Pizza features sweeter dough and sweeter sauce than its Italian cousin, along with a secret blend of imported cheeses. The available toppings will include ham, shrimp, chicken and a type of Cuban sausageknown as Churizo. Havana is open Monday-Friday, 11 a.m. to 9 p.m., and Saturday, 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Eat-in or take-out, delivery is free on orders of more than $10, and Havana can be reached at 201 - 933-3111.
