  • 1. Café Cubano (Cafecito)

    A tiny cup of intensely sweet, black coffee is the mainstay of life for many. If you want it with a drop of milk, ask for a cortadito .

  • 2. Conch Chowder or Fritters

    The snail- or slug-like creature that lives in beautiful pink shells is served up in a traditional, rather chewy dish.

  • 3. Black Beans and Rice

    “Moors and Christians” is the staple of the Cuban diet. Its savory, smoky flavor complements almost everything.

    A seafood marinade using lime juice, onions, green bell peppers, and cilantro (coriander).

  • 8. Chimichurri

    A sauce with olive oil, garlic, lemon juice or wine vinegar, and parsley. Jalapeño peppers are optional.
