    hanging out at the Malecón at night to people watch to beat the heat is the move.

    if you are a Cuba Libre type drinker, try the cobatta. it's a dark rum based thing.

    the artisans market (Almacenes San José Artisans' Market) is legit. I got a giant Cuban flag there. the joint is huge and full of awesome stuff.

        that's what I get for being an Anglo brain and trying to do phonetic from memory of my caveman language skills.

        the correct spelling is Cubata, but from my crap phonetic spelling, you can now imitate me pobre espanol.

        also, something that made me laugh inwardly is that rum is spelled ron. Havana Club aka "El Ron de Cuba". kinda wish my name was Ronald and I went by Ron.

          Huh, never knew Cuba Libre required white rum, I often did it with dark rum because I prefer the flavour. Time to be annoyingly pretentious about this from now on.
