For me the best Paladar in Cuba, not only for its food, but also for the eclectic of the place, located in a beautiful mansion from the beginning of the last century, now turned into a multifamily building, where the daily life of its inhabitants is intermingled with The tourists and diners of the palate, the decor is perfect, the service correct and the food delicious. And if you also like the cinema, you know that among its walls was filmed in 1993 the movie "Fresa y Chocolate"

Quite simply, the second best restaurant in Havana, next to La Guarida. Delicious, creative, modern cuisine. The ceviche (generous portion), beef tartar, Serrano ham, suckling pig and meatballs were all top notch. Great cappuccino as well. A very interesting menu and probably the best cocktails in Havana. The pina colada, daiquiri de coco and Ron Collins are particularly recommended. The staff is attentive, outgoing and fun, and they make you feel welcome and at home. Very cool decor and upbeat music. It's a great spot for dinner or just drinks. A must stop Havana!

Rstaurant "El Templete"
BarilloIt is a very touristy restaurant, but meets expectations. Usually you have to wait an average of 40 minutes to have a table, but it's worth the wait. It has a very varied menu for all tastes. Every dish I have tried has been very good and also the drinks. The atmosphere is relaxed and dimly lit, it is actually a dark place, but it is part of its charm. The service is very good and in general the atmosphere is cozy, relaxed. It is a must in front of the Capitol. From the places that owe their fame to the quality and warmth that characterize them.

One of the postcards of Havana, located on the other side of the bay is not to be photographed from the malecon. Every night in the fortress the ceremony of the cannon is realized, soldiers in period uniforms and redoblantes remember the curfew like in the time of the colony firing a thunderous cannon.

If you lose the card you must pay 30 cucs.

The Museum of the Revolution is a necessary place to understand the whole process of the Cuban Revolution. It is a bit extensive, so it is advisable to go early. The museum exposes life on the island from the beginning to the overthrow of Fulgencio Batista and is filled with phrases of Che, Camilo and Fidel. It is located in Habana Centro near everything, and in my opinion is a necessary place to better understand life on the Island.
