Mi Bandera Supermarket

The Write-Up

The full story

A family-owned Caribbean supermarket on West Oak Ridge Road, stocking the groceries South Orlando's Caribbean kitchens run on: pantry staples, produce, meats and seafood alongside major-brand groceries, with a Dominican lean. The hot food counter is the second draw, turning out inexpensive cafeteria-style plates that make the market as much a lunch stop as a grocery run. Shop the aisles, then eat like the neighborhood does.
