This week on The Mountain Magnolia Show, we’re celebrating five flavorful years of Cousins Cuban Café in Black Mountain, North Carolina — and the woman whose heart and soul have made it a community treasure: Beatriz “Betty” Martinez-Sperry. From her roots in Miami to the mountains of WNC, Betty brings the warmth of Cuban culture to every plate. Her food tells a story — of family, of migration, of love — and her café has become a gathering place where friendships are formed over café con leche, Cuban sandwiches, and shared laughter. Join us as we talk about: What inspired Betty to open her café in Black Mountain  The power of food as a bridge between cultures  How she infuses tradition with modern flavor (including vegan options!)  And her favorite dish for first-timers — the Mojo Pork Bowl   “Food is a memory. Every flavor tells the story of where we come from and who we love.” ~ Unknown    Celebrate Cousins’ 5-year anniversary — Friday, Oct 17, 5-8 p.m. — with mojitos, appetizers, and community connections!
