A tourist in Cuba won't see what the average citizen eats but we spent one day touring Havana and this is what we were served.
The fish is red snapper, the veggies were crunchy and the rice is always just fine. I like food to be well seasoned and they have the knack.
Friday night at the resort was declared Lobster night and the staff went all-out to prepare and display the food. The lobsters are smaller than those in Canada and their shells are pale and freckled. Delicious.
I planned to photograph the chef around an array of lobster but he misunderstood my fractured spanish so here we have number five son with the chef and one lobster.
This is what I think of as the"all-purpose" area, catering to Canadian, Spanish, French and Italian palettes and this presentation is a bit of everything, just as long as it is grown or caught on the island.
there is a strong Spanish influence in the people here as the chef indicates.
This artisan created the viola while we dined.
I wonder when people were allowed to dismantle it? Now that would be a real chocolate high.

It was a blast, heat and all.
