El Floridita, an historic restaurant and cocktail bar in Old Havana (La Habana Vieja) Cuba, is famous for having been one of the favorite hangouts of Ernest Hemingway. In honor of Hemingway nobody is allowed to sit in the hallowed corner which was, and still is, reserved for the writer. A drink, Hemingway invented there, is called Papa Doble, a double daiquiri… What can I say? – Hemingway was not only a great writer :) The drink is delicious! Because of the drink El Floridita is called “La Cuna Del Daiquiri”, literally translated as “The Cradle of the Daiquiri”. During my visit, a street music band performed Bamboleo, Besame Mucho and other great Spanish songs… Thanks, El Floridita! That was the best night of my trip!
