Though the Caribbean isles are well known to outsiders, Caribbean cuisine remains a hidden gem due to tourists frequently subsisting solely off a paste made from sand, ocean water, and pureed linen pants. Uncover the edible treasure of the tropics with today’s deal: for $10, you get $20 worth of authentic South American and Caribbean cuisine at El Portón Café in Overland Park. El Portón's menu features regional South American and Cuban dishes, including savory arepa sandwiches made with wheat-free Venezuelan corn flour bread. Patrons can BYOB or quench a tropical thirst with one of El Portón's exotic, fresh-squeezed juices such as papaya, passion fruit, and paw paw. El Portón's flavorful cuisine is accented by a vivacious dining space which features rotating displays of contemporary art and the thumping beat of Latin jazz tunes suitable for both competitive and recreational hip-shaking.
