Our first stop for the evening was at a well recommended paladar, Ivan Chef Justo, in Old Havana.
Our greeting at the top of the stairs!
...lots of old photos and posters around the walls.....
...the menu choice is from the blackboard....... a little difficult to read!
The food was quite good but we felt it was a little over rated as the service was extremely slow and there were large tour groups who were getting preferential service!
Cute place though..
Our nice driver...
and classic car was waiting for us after we had dinner......
......to take us to the Fabrica de Arte Cubana.......
I had read about this place in an article in the Guardian....and it seemed fascinating!
It was!!
We arrived to a classical concert which was great...
......had we known there was food and drink to be bought there we would not have bothered to go elsewhere for dinner........ we would have just snacked on arrival.
One pays just $2 to get in......any food/drink is discretionary....
After the concert ended we wandered around the gallery....
This door panel describes rather accurately most cars we were driven around in!
.....all shapes and sizes.......and yes I do have close ups!
This was an old oil mill.....transformed.......
..... even when we were leaving there were still lots of people arriving. Definitely one of the 'IN' places to be!
