ContactarPor casi una década he explorado la escena culinaria habanera en mi condición de fundador de Alamesa - el servicio de búsqueda y descubrimiento de restaurantes líder en Cuba - he sido testigo de su evolución y descubierto sus secretos. Todo lo que conozco acerca de cómo funciona este negocio en Cuba, sus técnicos, trucos, lugares y gente, lo aprendí "en la concreta", de la manera más empírica posible. Me encanta compartri contigo mis experiencias y hallazgos a lo largo de nuestra interacción con bares y restaurantes en Cuba. También soy co-fundador de Ruta de Tapas Habana, la primera y mayor competición de tapas y tragos en Cuba. Su objetivo de mostrar a quienes viven en mi ciudad, toda la creatividad de la emergente escena gastronómica local. Te ayudaré a conocer de ella.
Cualquiera puede llevarte a una paladar -restaurante privado - en la Habana, pero yo, puedo llevarte un poco más allá. Te ayudaré a entender qué se necesita para sacar adelante un negocio en esta ciudad, mientras visitamos la trastienda de uno. ¿Cómo obtienen los ingredientes para una deliciosa Ropa Vieja? ¿Cómo se mantiene crujiente el pan de un sandwich cubano? Visitarás las áreas, verás la reunión de mise-en-place, harás tus propios Mojitos, probarás la especialidad de la casa desde la misma sartén e intercambiarás con el equipo en la cocina. Literalmente, seguirás cada paso que dé tu comida, para llegar hasta tu mesa, en la que conversaremos de la manera más sincera sobre la realidad cubana, aderezando el intercambio con bebidas y comida. A la hora del café, te daré consejos y recomendaciones para encontrar buenas ofertas culinarias en mi ciudad.
Nos encontraremos fuera del restaurante La Catedral.
Calle 8 entre Calzada y 5ta, en el Vedado, Plaza de la Revolución
Te llevaré por los procesos internos del restaurante y compartiremos elementos de su cotidianidad con los miembros del staff.

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!
S
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.
M
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.
S
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!
Highly recommend this tour. It is a unique way to learn about the culture of Cuba, and how it operates through the eyes of a restaurateur. He loves his country and its people. This shows through his enthusiasm and his willingness to answer any question. The restaurant was fantastic and staff friendly. We very much enjoyed this tour.
