Eating is a big part of traveling, so we choose to not include all meals as part of the trip price to give you a choice of eating options. This allows for maximum flexibility in deciding where, what and with whom to eat. It also gives you more budgeting flexibility. Our groups tend to eat together, of course there is no obligation to do this. Below is a list of some of our favorite restaurants in Cuba! HAVANA O'Reilly 304 (Spanish/ Caribbean) O'Reilly #304, Habana Vieja Thinking up the name (the restaurant's address) can't have taken much imagination, but this place serves up some of the most imaginative cuisine in Havana. Exquisite seafood with crispy vegetables is presented on metal pans set into wooden trays, while the cocktails and tacos are fast becoming legendary. Seafood here is fantastic and fresh, and its ceviche is the holy grail here, voted as the best ceviche restaurant in Havana. Also, don't miss the watermelon or passion fruit mojitos that pack a punch! The simple restaurant is probably the trendiest and hippest eatery in Cuba. Dona Eutimia (Cuban/ Creole) Callejón del Chorro No. 60C, Plaza de la Catedral This paladar is located opposite an artist's workshop within a few meters of the large state restaurant, El Patio, on Cathedral Square. The place is small, old, personal, an intimate place where you can relax. The bar area has a modern coffee shop lounge feel (think Friends) with comfortable sofas, bright cushions and good music (modern lounge). The owner, Leticia, has developed a very traditional Cuban menu based on memories of her mother's dishes. She does not like to invent new dishes or to mix with a modern touch. So look for tamal, ropa vieja (shredded beef), pork, rice and beans cooked with original flavors. Don't underestimate how good these
