The Night Houdini Did A Vanishing Act in Holguin.
'Hola, wer u from' said the tiny man who sidled up to me as I watched the flamenco show on the last night of the Cinquo di Mayo festivities. More grease than an oil slick on his jet black hair he looked like a C list actor from a low rent crime film set in Las Vegas, lost inside a lage gold lame jacket that would not have been out of place at an Elvis reunion.
Miguel was a magician, the Houdini of Cuba, he could make things disappear but he would love to invite me to dine at a 'real Cuban restaurant where Cubans ate and no estranjeras went.If I met him outside at 6pm he would take me in.
I was intrigued and showed up at 6pm. There he was waiting outside. 'She's with me he said to the man at the door' and he ushered me inside a cavernous room that could have been a set for a film on life in Russia circa 1957.
Miguel was from Matanzas and was in Holguin for the festival. He ordered everything listed on the menu, and wolfed down a basket of bread, a bowl of soup, frijoles, main course, dessert, followed by fruit washed down with a bottle of local wine.. No sooner had he cleaned his plate and wiped his lips with the napkin he excused himself and went to the toilet.
The waiter presented me with the bill. Half an hour later no sign of Miguel. Had Houdini done a vanishing act? It appeared so. I'd been had. The waiter was apologetic and had a look around outside, no sign of him. Houdini had vanished.
Ladies beware of short men with greasy black hair in gold lame suits who claim to be a magician. They are skilled in the act of disappearance.

Restaurante Polinesio |
Avenida Lenin. Edificio 18 Plantas.
Holguin
Tel: (24) 455234
Canalcubano: Situated in the twelfth floor of Holguin´s highest building, you will enjoy the same breathtaking view as a bird flying over the roofs of the city. Its menu, based on a mere international kitchen, nevertheless doesn´t offer the same variety and authenticity we usually expect from restaurants wearing this name. Nice prices. |

Canalcubano: "Sabor y Amor" -Taste and Love- this is the motto of the place written in its entry placard. It is right because this place offers a tasty creole cuisine and a lovely service. In Holguín, a city with few restaurants, this is one of the recommended addresses to eat well.

Restaurant Yelly Boom
It was one of the most delicious food and best service in Cuba. The restaurant is nicely decorated and very clean. The servers speak more or less English and are very friendly. Compared to the quality, the prices are very reasonable. The owner is very helpful and friendly, too. he helped us find a room in a casa particulaire.

This is a gem for international and Cuban food, with a great atmosphere and outdoor patio. The ceviche is highly recommended and a rare find in a Cuban restaurant. The cost was reasonable at 8 to 10 cuc a plate in 2013. Not a large restaurant but high quality meals with above average service.
Este Palador es el mejor que puedes entregar en el Este de Cuba. El cocinaro estudio en Havana y por eso la comida es internacional. Me recomdacion es el Ceviche de marisco que es egual o mejor ceviche de restaurantes de Peru o Chile. Hay bien comida Cubano tambien.

Canalcubano: Spacious and comfortable restaurant which could be much nicer with the decoration of its walls and roof redone. The menu, simple fare style, offers a few international dishes and a lot of local Cuban ones, especially sea-food and fish. The level of the food is correct. There are only a few wines but good cocktails and beers. |

Nevertheless its stable quality, without up and downs, moderate prices, good service and interesting offer of beverages, including cocktails and drinks, maintain its success. |
