The best lunch in Florham Park is at Tasserts, a restaurant tucked into the corner of a shopping plaza on Columbia Turnpike. The chef has high aspirations at Tasserts, just check out the ingredient list on the menu, but the thing that keeps me coming back is the Cuban sandwich. I can’t decide what I like better, the chipotle sauce, the caramelized onions, the Niman Ranch pork or the crusty bread made in house but this sandwich is a killer.






Now when you look at the pictures you’ll notice there’s no ham in the Tasserts Cuban. I guess this makes it less than authentic. Half way through one of these baby’s and you won’t care about authenticity. You’ll be reaching for water to cool down the bite from that chipotle sauce. As another blogger put it “f* the ham” and he hadn’t even had the sandwich yet. For $10 I can’t imagine a better lunch value and the sandwich comes with fries. You can substitute a small salad for those fries if you want. I do this sometimes; a little delusion I have about trying to eat in a more healthful way.





Looking at the menu I noticed they now offer a Kobe burger which I haven’t tried. The burger that used to be on the menu wasn’t listed as Kobe beef and it was good but not as good as the one at Copeland. Tempting as trying that burger is I’ll be hard pressed not to order that Cuban the next time I go back.
