Cubana, Waterloo

With its showgirl from the world-famous Tropicana greating customers and passersby alike, it's hard not to notice Cubana at the north end of Lower Marsh.


Opened in 1939 in Marianao, a suburb of Havana, the Tropicana cabaret still draws crowds to its elaborate shows. I don't think we'll be going there but for the next few weeks we'll be appreciating the many cultural, architectural, and culinary delights the Caribbean island has to offer, as well as the hospitality of the Cuban people. So see you after Easter!
