    The El Floridita is not far from El Capitolia - look for the bright red exterior. This is "The Home of the Dacquiri" and, while I am not a huge fan of dacquiris, I must admit that the one I had here was very good. We did not eat here but other people we spoke with told us that the food was good.

    This was also one of Hemingway's favourite hang-outs, back in the day. There is a bronze statue of him at the bar, along with many photographs of him on the walls.

    Favorite Dish: Well, obviously, the Dacquiri is their specialty! And at 6CUC, it *better* be good!

    This was one of Hemmingways favorite. It´s mostly fish and the food is really good but also expensive.
