Let’s break this down 👇
🍽️ All-you-can-eat Cuban feast
🍹 Mojito Mondays
❤️ Supporting Cuban freedom
All in ONE night.
Philadelphia is getting a Monday night upgrade – and it’s about more than incredible food. At Cuba Libre Restaurant, something powerful is happening every Monday night. It’s called The Great Cuban Freedom Feast – a $30 all-you-can-eat pork dinner that blends bold Cuban flavors with a meaningful mission.
Inspired by growing global attention on Cuba’s uncertain future, this weekly feast isn’t just a meal – it’s a show of solidarity. 10% of the proceeds from each meal will support Cuba Decide, a citizen-led movement working toward peaceful democratic change on the island.
Come hungry. This feast delivers:
Slow-roasted citrus-marinated pork shoulder with an onion-caper mojo for that perfect tangy kick
Classic sides: white rice, black beans, jardín salad, and grilled bread
Optional crispy pork chicharrón (+$5, and worth it)
For kids 12 and under, the pork feast is $16.
And the drink? Opt to add on a $5 Cuba Libre cocktail – rum, coke, and lime – named for the very idea behind the event: a free Cuba.
Yeah… Mondays officially win.
