Because Louisiana has no Cuban background. That simple!

Hasn't stopped Liborio's from being open for years in NOLA, or Union Supermarket from selling pastelitos de guayaba and Cuban sandwiches when they were on Carrollton. I think location plays a big part, I used to go to this decent place in Metairie that lasted less than a year.

Most of the people who eat at Cuban restaurants in NOLA generally aren't Cuban. I think a small Cuban cafe would do well in Baton Rouge over time.
