Banana Cafe and Piano Bar the menu imitates life: Jorge Zamoran

Banana Cafe and Piano Bar the menu imitates life: Jorge Zamorano and his family fled the revolution in Cuba; he spent hours watching his grandmother cook in Puerto Rico; he took over a Tex-Mex place Washington 20 years ago. Result: A Cubanorican Tex-Mex mashup, including grandma-inspired mofongo and bistec encebollado. On a frisky night, the guy at the piano will play the keyboard with one hand and a trumpet or a sax with the other.
