paladares are privately owned Cuban restaurants that developed as an alternative to state food service. The a Havana paladar restaurant was exactly right for this kind of eating. Cristal beer was offered as the natural choice and it elevated everything. When a dish you thought you knew surprises you completely, that's worth celebrating. Five stars without hesitation.
