ContactarMitad conocedor, mitad explorador asombrado. En tanto co-fundador de AlaMesa, he sido testigo activo del devenir de restaurantes y bares en esta ciudad que adoro. He recogido sus experiencias y escrito sobre ellas online, y ahora quiero compartir algo de lo aprendido contigo.
Acompáñame en un recorrido por una de las paladares más populares de La Habana. En Cuba, el término "paladar" se utiliza para designar a los restaurantes privados. En la última década toda una cultura gastronómica ha emergido alrededor de las paladares y queremos ayudarte a descubrirla. Visitaremos una y recorreremos sus áreas aprendiendo sobre la estrategia implementada para lidiar con los retos más comunes de los pequeños negocios en Cuba. Luego compartiremos almuerzo y hablaremos de la evolución de esta industria en los últimos años y del impacto en la cultura local.
Nos encontraremos fuera del restaurante La Catedral.
Calle 8 entre Calzada y 5ta, en el Vedado, Plaza de la Revolución

Ariel was a fascinating guy to meet and spend a few hours with. We talked about Cuban society in general and the paladar business in particular, especially the challenges faced because of the Cuban govt. control of the food supply. It got a bit "into the weeds" at times with details of the restaurant business, but overall it was a great experience with great mojitos and a good lunch.

We had a great and fun experience learning how to make Cuban special drinks. Ariel was so wonderful and helpful with giving us insight in to the lifestyle of the area. I would highly recommend you book this experience with Ariel.

This was a great chance to pick the brain of a Cuban who has wholly embraced the changes happening in Cuba. Ariel was very friendly and informative, and welcomed any questions we had - not only about the operation of a paladar but about Cuba in general. Overall a great experience providing plenty of insight and a great lunch (and cocktails)! Thanks Ariel!

Ariel was a great host. He is a fun guy with a lot to share. During our experience, we learned how to make mojitos; we went behind the scenes of a restaurant, and we ate tasty food. I highly recommend this experience. You won’t be disappointed.

Ariel was the perfect host and his experience was exceptional. He gave us an amazing insight into dining in Cuba which made the rest of our trip a breeze. He was funny and went above and beyond to make sure we had a fantastic time.

We loved our experience with Ariel. It was great chatting to him about his business, Cuban food and restaurants and just Cuba in general. It was lots of fun and it made our stay much easier once we knew where to go and what Cuban specialties we couldn’t miss!! Thanks for a great day Ariel!

This is an excellent experience! Arial is a great speaker, and we learned so much (like I now know how to make a mojito and run a restaurant!???) Apart from the great insight into private enterprise in Cuba, - and the great food - Arial recommended several restaurants from his app (AlaMesa) - we visited these and they were all outstanding! Highly recommended!

This was a very enjoyable experience. We had a lot of fun, learned some things and enjoys some great food and drinks. Be sure to ask Ariel for Havana restaurant recommendations. He gave us some great ones.

Ariel was super knowledgable and very warm. The experience is even better than my daughter and I expected. The popular restaurant is such a beautiful establishment with a great story. We were so fortunate to have a family of 3 from Colorado that did the experience as well and they were great. We learned a lot about the restaurant business, the culture of the restaurant and ate amazing food there too. Oh and had super tasty drinks as well. It was great to see another part of Cuba( about 20-30minutes from Havana)..more residential but full of life and culture. Worth every penny and I highly recommend. I plan on dining at the restaurant when I return. Thanks Ariel!
Ariel is an incredible human being. This is an absolute MUST DO when visiting Cuba. He taught us so much about the city of Havana and the food industry. He is incredibly kind and knowledgable. The food was top notch, the drinks were delicious and our conversation with him was priceless!
