Café del Oriente is a Gourmet Restaurant that prides itself on being one of the most luxurious spots in Havana. It has two rooms, the bar cafe, on the ground floor, with a fantastic bar, around which there are stools, tables and Pullman benches; and the five forks restaurant, on the upper floor, which stands out majestically for its soft tones and elegant furniture, combined with curtains and tapestry, under a great colorful stained glass skylight, a work by Cuban visual artist Rosa María de la Terga. Elegance and a fine service are the main hallmarks of this house devoted to culinary arts, which provides discerning gourmets with over sixty dishes of original recipes from Europe, the Middle East and Cuba. The restaurant was opened on December 17, 1997 by the then Director General of UNESCO, Federico Mayor Zaragoza and the City Historian, Eusebio Leal Spengler. Read More
