\n\t\t\t\t\t\tThis hybrid between a classic Cuban medianoche sandwich and a fresh croissant by Salty Donut is a must-try when visiting Miami this winter.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n

Two Miami favorites, the Salty (formerly the Salty Donut)<\/a>\u00a0and Sanguich, winner of\u00a0New Times\u2018 Best Cuban Sandwich 2024<\/a>, have collaborated on a limited-edition menu item that is an absolute must-try for anyone visiting Miami this winter. The new, limited-edition item combines the classic Cuban sandwich flavors found at Sanguich shops<\/a> in Miami with a fluffy and sweet pastry crafted by the Salty. The result is the \u201cMedianoche Croissant Sandwich,\u201d available only at the Salty\u2019s original Wynwood location<\/a> every day from open until 3 p.m.<\/p>\n

The Salty previewed the delicious creation in a social media post on Instagram<\/a>,\u00a0which sent fans of both iconic shops into a frenzy. The teaser urged viewers to \u201cTurn your volume up\u201d to hear the \u201ccrunch of the croissant,\u201d the \u201csizzle\u201d of Sanguich ham and lechon, and the drizzle of a house guava Dijon. Yum.<\/p>\n

Two Local Spots With Dedicated Followings<\/p>\n

\t\t\t\t\t\t\tWhen news happens, Miami New Times is there \u2014
Your support strengthens our coverage.\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tWe\u2019re aiming to raise $30,000 by December 31, so we can continue covering what matters most to you. If\u00a0Miami New Times\u00a0matters to you, please take action and contribute today, so when news happens, our reporters can be there.\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n

The collaboration links two places that already draw steady crowds in Miami. Since 2015, the Salty has built its reputation on brioche-style doughnuts<\/a>, rotating seasonal flavors, and a menu that combines classics with twists, such as \u201cBrown Butter and Salt,\u201d \u201cMaple Bacon,\u201d and \u201cStrawberry Shortcake.\u201d Coffee is also a major part of the experience, and lines are common at peak hours and weekends.\u00a0<\/p>\n

On the other hand, Sanguich specializes in Cuban sandwiches and comfort food. The menu features staples like pan con bistec, \u201cCroqueta Preparada,\u201d \u201cMedianoche,\u201d and fruit batidos. Regulars point to the crunch of the bread, the melted cheese, and the house pickles. The Cuban sandwich is one of the most discussed in the city. Both places have become anchors in Miami\u2019s food scene, and both have built strong followings.<\/p>\n

\"\"The croissant medianoche hybrid by the Salty and Sanguich is to die for<\/p>\n

Ok, so what\u2019s this creation made of? Well, it replaces the traditional soft and sweet Cuban bread found at Sanguich shops with a buttery croissant, and is then filled with the core medianoche components (Swiss cheese, pork, ham, mustard, and pickles). However, this limited-edition version includes Sanguich ham and lechon, and the Salty\u2019s special guava Dijon. The sandwich plays on the contrast between the flaky pastry and the savory, sweet, and tangy flavors that define a medianoche.<\/p>\n

Miami has a rich history with Cuban sandwiches<\/a>, Cuban bakeries, and menu mashups that remix classic dishes. For now, the \u201cMedianoche Croissant Sandwich\u201d is a daytime exclusive. Anyone who wants to try it will have to head to Wynwood before 3 p.m. and see how a croissant version stacks up against the original.<\/p>\n
