This
one is way off the beaten path. So far off that,
after I asked directions and found the boat yard where
it is located, I walked up to the porch of a shack and
asked where I could find the Cuban restaurant. "Aqui,
señor." I was there.
There is a very
small dining room that doesn't seem to be used.
Beyond that, the reason, besides the food, to seek out
El Varadero - a small porch dining room that overlooks
the narrow inlet to the Macax Lagoon. The lagoon
is where many of the yachts and luxurious fishing boats
moor, and quite a site watching them return to port
after a day's run.
I had a beer, but
everyone told me the mojitos are fantastic. My
entree - red snapper sautéed in oil and garlic.
Instead of the frijoles - black beans and rice and
sautéed plantains (bananas actually). |
