What is a Jibarito Sandwich?

In 2005, I had an opportunity to visit Chicago for a few days for a business conference and as soon as I arrived to the hotel my conference was being held at, I recieved an email on my blackberry from a friend Dulce Ramos. Dulce Ramos is a Chicago native and very successful woman that has an amazing career in real estate as well as very unique women's shoe store called the Pump Room Boutique. I decided to call Dulce to let her know I was in town and before I knew it...she was at the Hotel picking me up to give me the Chicago Express Latino Tour.

You see...I had written an article inquiring about the existence of Latino Life in Chicago and Dulce really wanted to show me how proud the Boricuas are out in Paseo Boricua. What I encountered was fascinating, all these really nice shops and boutiques with very interesting themes and personality all of their own. She asked me if I wanted to have a "Jibarito" and I looked at her with a puzzled look...I had no idea what she was talking about. She took her time to explain it to me as we drove to a place called "Borinquen Restaurant" which is also known as the home of this Mysterious "Jibarito Sandwich". Read more »

I Am Latino...Ask Me: Americanos ask about the power of the Chancleta...

I Am Latino...Ask Me is a new weekly syndicated column written by Sofrito For Your Soul founder, George "Urban Jibaro" Torres. The column was created to answer questions that mainstream America has about Latinos and our culture. A departure from the routine of Sofrito For Your Soul, I Am Latino...Ask Me is driven by the readers desire to get answers to those burning questions that they have but have no one to ask. There are plans to incorporate the column into Urban Jibaro's Radio Capicu show on Blog Talk Radio. Do you have a question for the Urban Jibaro? Send your questions to SofritoSubmissions@gmail.com Read more »
