Culinairy Discovery of Cuba.

There is more than rice and beans…..Cuba’s culinairy specialities are a revolution of their own. Thanks to the growth of the paladares (private restaurants) and the creativity of Cuban chefs, the quality of the Cuban kitchen is increasing. High quality, better service and surprising ideas and presentations of restaurants and menus. Havana presents nowadays a scala of international kitchens: from Russian to Vietnamese, French, Spanish, Swedish, Chinese, Libanese, Japanese,  Indian etc…….  you name it!! All choices are there and slowly, but surely,  these development takes place in other cities in the country.

One of the fundaments of this development is local, biological vegetables, directly from the farms to the restaurants . An other surprising development was a campaign last year La Ruta de Tapas in Havana:  a presentation of  12 small restaurants-bars in Old havana with a drink and a eye-catching tapas for a special price! But nevertheless, the authentic and delicious rice and beans are still there but culinairy Cuba is on the move.
