With its ever-changing coordinates and conspicuous absence from the Beach Boys' "Kokomo," Cuba is one of the more difficult to locate Caribbean nations. Dig into this enigma with a fork, knife, and today's Groupon: for $15, you get $30 worth of authentic Cuban and Mexican fare at La Bamba Island Cuisine in Burbank.

La Bamba Island Cuisine's owner, Chef Chris, adds a dash of personal culinary flare to a menu rife with authentic Cuban and Mexican cuisine. Diners embark on a culinary cruise by hoisting their tongue's anchor and sailing taste buds across a grilled cuban sandwich, bursting with shredded, oven-roasted pork, ham, and guacamole ($7.25+). Flood palates with lemony-garlic waves of sautéed panama shrimp, packed with tiger shrimp and chopped garlic ($13.95), alongside a bunch of fried plantains ($4.95). Meanwhile, frosty mugs of fresh mango fruit shakes ($3.95) and whipped horchatas ($2.95) safely chaperone bites into stomach caverns. Patrons settle into La Bamba's covered outdoor patio or kick back inside the dining room, outfitted with three new flat-screen TVs that flicker NFL Sunday Ticket games as the aroma of weekend breakfast entrees accentuates the taste of victory.
