Enjoying International Women's Day

in GEMS11 hours ago
Yesterday my husband invited me to celebrate International Women's Day at a restaurant-bar called “Once upon a time”. As much as I insisted to stay at home and not spend that money because we are saving to make some repairs in our house, he decided that this is not just any day and that any expense was more than justified.

The chosen place has all the conditions to have a nice time, with good Creole food, excellent treatment, good drinks and an excellent view that gives it a good location in the center of the city.

That is why we accepted this suggestion made by some friends who had already visited it and decided to go there.

When you arrive you seem to be inside a boat or about to enter one because there is a lot of equipment and elements of this type of transport.

Too the place is a marvel and it is properly decorated, with elements that make you feel like you are in a place far away from the city and inside an ocean. The truth is that yes, I was in an ocean, but of joys, good things and having a happy time.

The first thing we did was to choose our table and after looking at the menu we asked one of the guys working in the place to take some pictures of us.

Then we ordered some chicken croquettes as a starter. My husband ordered a beer and I ordered a delicious Cuban mojito.

Between laughter, anecdotes and music, the time went by and it was very short.

When it was time for lunch, I ordered grilled fish fillet and my husband a pork chop.

I must say that those who told us that in this place the cuisine is exquisite were not wrong because the quality of the dishes we tasted was very good.

The dishes were accompanied by a vegetable salad and a plate of french fries as a side dish, something we had not eaten for some time.

After eating lunch I ordered a piece of cake which was what I liked, out of all the dessert they had on the menu.
My husband ordered another beer and didn't want to have any cake or ice cream, as he told me he was satisfied with what he had eaten and didn't want anything else.

After lunch they brought us the bill and, in spite of the beautiful moment we had, the truth is that the bill was quite high, but my husband said that the occasion justified it.

After lunch we decided to walk around and enjoy the different places in downtown Havana, the capital of Cuba, before returning home.

It was a different day, simple, but very nice.

As my husband says, we got to know another place that we can now include among the places we have visited in this place where we arrived 10 years ago.

The photos were taken with my Samsung Galaxy cell phone.
The translator used was Deepl Translate.
