537 862 9294 Type: cuban Open: noon-midnight daily The name of an important tobacco zone, traditional Cuban food with an interesting twist: it's mainly based on fruit! One of the most popular dishes is the Pescado al Trapiche Colonial (Colonial Sugar Mill Fish), made with ginger and molasses.

Yasmín Calle 140, esquina 19, Cubanacán., Playa Tel: 537 208 9346 Type: Middle-eastern Open: noon-11pm Opened in 2006 Yasmín generated a lot of enthusiasm as a new restaurant proving Middle Eastern cuisine.
