Traditional Sweet Dishes
Flan
Cuban flan is a silky baked custard topped with a thin layer of caramel, and many Cuban recipes use condensed milk to give it extra creaminess that resists the island heat.
Tres Leches Cake
Tres leches cake soaks up three kinds of milk until it becomes almost pudding-like, and it is a show-stopping dessert at Cuban celebrations because each forkful is decadently moist.
Dulce de Leche
Dulce de leche is made by slowly simmering milk and sugar until it becomes a caramelized, spreadable treasure, and Cubans use it to fill pastries and sweet breads across the island.
Traditional Savory Dishes
Ropa Vieja
Ropa vieja, literally 'old clothes', is shredded beef braised in a smoky tomato and pepper sauce, and its stringy texture is said to resemble torn fabric, which inspired the name.
Arroz con Pollo
Arroz con pollo is a one-pot celebration of rice and chicken colored with saffron or bijol for a warm golden hue, and family recipes often include olives, peas, and a bright squeeze of lime.
Picadillo
Picadillo mixes ground beef with tomatoes, olives, raisins, and capers for a sweet and savory punch that reflects Spanish and Caribbean influences, and it commonly stuffs empanadas or tops white rice and beans.
Traditional Beverages
Mojito
The mojito pairs fresh mint, lime, sugar, and white rum for a zesty, cooling drink that became synonymous with Havana nightlife, and it was famously celebrated in bars like La Bodeguita del Medio.
Daiquiri
The daiquiri was born in Cuba as a simple blend of rum, lime, and sugar, and the frozen variation and Ernest Hemingway's favorite at El Floridita helped turn it into a global classic.
Cuba Libre
The Cuba Libre mixes rum and cola with a squeeze of lime, and the cocktail's name and origin story are tied to Cuba's struggle for independence when American cola met Cuban rum.

Go in November-March for drier weather and fewer bugs, summer is hot and sticky with afternoon rain.
Crazy vibrant city, music on every corner, food is tasty but portions vary, plan 3-4 days to feel it, budget a bit more for taxis.
Old Havana is charming after sunset, daytime can be crowded and touristy, expect slow service and cash-only spots.
Buy ETECSA WiFi cards at their offices early morning, they sell out fast. Walk two blocks off the main squares for real, cheap comida.
Exchange cash at official CADECA kiosks or banks, never with street sellers; bring small USD bills to avoid bad rates.
