Per professano vegetarianismo in un ristorante tipico a L'Avana deve essere raggiunto nella maggior parte dei casi, con 'frittata?'E ciò che si ottiene è lo stesso di tutti gli altri, ma con una frittata al posto della carne, so typically this would be a small thin well cooked omelet accompanied by rice and beans. After a while I began to crave broccoli.
In Vedado, il prode vegetariano della pizza è deliziosa in stile cafe formica presentato Trattoria Maraka sulla Calle 0 tra Calles 23 e 25, letteralmente dietro il blocco dall 'Hotel Habana Libre e la sua anche deliziosi una corsa in taxi di distanza nel centro storico, served on the elegant piazza in Restaurante La Dominica. Ho letto di Graham Greene divertente 'Il nostro agente all'Avana' mentre ero lì e felice a visitare le vie del centro storico che ha citato tanto spesso.
But dinner is by no means the only fun to be had at night. By day Havana is noisy and hot and polluted but the wall around the pool at the Habana Libre, formerly the Havana Hilton before the revolution is an adequate barricade against the noise of the old cars. One can lie under a canopy drinking pina colladas or too sweet mojitos and look up at the rooms occupied by Fidel, Che et al circa 1959. Le camere ci sono ampie e confortevoli e moderne, afford spectacular views over the city and are drenched in sunlight via the floor to ceiling windows. But at night the heat and the breeze from the sea are delicious. Around Las Ramblas in central Havana the pavements throng with brightly dressed locals and live music emanates from every bar. In contrasto con il centro storico con i suoi magnifici edifici è elegante e serioso e più turistico.
Le persone a L'Avana sono molto conviviale, walking alone will not leave you without conversation. Some people will ask you a lot of questions and then ask for money, altri sarà solo fare domande molto, incantare dal mondo esterno quasi impossibile fuori dalla portata.
In 'la sua biografiaPrima che sia notte'Reinaldo Arenas ha scritto, infelice in esilio dopo aver finalmente facendo gli Stati Uniti 'La differenza tra i sistemi comunista e capitalista è che, anche se entrambi ti danno un calcio in culo, nel sistema comunista devi applaudire, mentre nel sistema capitalista si può urlare.

its good Karan, appreciate your efforts in being vegetarian there! Also start practicing Sel Inquiry / Atma Vichara, that would take you towards the supreme being / God…As a friend, I can definitely share details regarding the same. You can drop me a mail and I will forward you more info on this.
Love,

Hello Satheesh
I have been vegetarian for many years and some countries are more difficult than others. Cuba was a challenge but then so are parts of France! Whereabouts in India are you from? Some time ago I stayed at the Sivananda ashram in Kerala (amongst others) and it was enlightening..
Hi Karen,
Nice comments – I am visiting Havana and Varadero in May/June with my wife – we are both vegetarians and would love your comments on the veggie friendly places to eat in and around Havana.
Looking forward to hearing from you soon
Hi Deepak
The two Italian restaurants I mention are really nice, the one in Vedado is more like a cafe and you sit inside, the one in the old town is more elegant and there are tables outside on a quiet street. I went for a day trip to Las Terrazzas, a eco village and they had a wonderful looking vegetarian restaurant there but if you go on the (government run)tour from Havana they stop at a different restaurant for lunch at its not close to this one (they go there at the end) so it will take some planning. We missed out on this one because we thought we could just pop in there…its called El Romero and looks really good
Hi Karen,
Thank you for your suggestions 😀 I’ve done a fair bit of online searching and have found a good selection for the 4 days in Havana – will definitely be making a day trip to Las Terrazas and also the botanical gardens – apparently a lovely veggie place there too.
I hope you enjoy your time in Cuba – I shall be keeping upto date with your blog for sure
Hi Deepak
I also made a list of vegetarian places before I went but unfortunately the group I met in Havana were mostly carnivorous! I have read very mixed reviews about the restaurant in the botanical gardens but didnt get to go there. More on the agenda were places like Hemmingway’s haunt La Bodeguita del Medio, worth it for the atmosphere and the photos but not really for the food! Another one I read about but didnt get the chance to go to was Restaurant Vegetariano between calles C and D, the tip I read somewhere was to refuse table service…It was a shame the government tour didnt go past El Romero (the vegetarian restaurant) at Las Terrazzas until the end of the day. But forewarned is forearmed and I think its worth taking a detour. Thanks for reading my blog and have a fantastic time in Cuba.
