In 2017, Matthew Kuscher (Lokal, Kush, the Spillover) purchased Stephen’s, the last of Hialeah’s Jewish delis, with a mission to keep the tradition alive.

La Carreta doesn’t serve the most gourmet Cuban food in Miami, but with multiple locations, it’s a convenient place to get the classics.

This Hialeah-Miami Lakes hole-in-the-wall is hard to find but well worth the mission if only to try the enchiladas poblanas, which include exotic, spicy mole slathered onto three corn tortillas stuffed with chicken and crowned with Mexican cheese ($12.99). Vegetarians can substitute spinach for the chicken and top the whole thing off with sliced avocados. […]
