Havana Cafe on Commercial Drive (Vancouver, Canada)

I had the absolute best brunch at Havana Cafe a few weeks back. Chorizo hash was its name: A  bowl of hashbrows, covered with chorizo, eggs and tomato salsa sauce...served with a side of bread. It was heaven in a bowl and I ate every last bite. There are so many great dishes on the menu and I wanted to try so many including my favorite Cuban dish from my days living in Miami...Ropa Veja (see menu). Make sure to try it for yourself and let me know what you think. 

Havana houses a cafe, theatre and art gallery all under one roof. Having recently returned from a trip to Playa del Carmen where I fell in love with the restaurant 'La Bodeguita del Medio'- I was surprised to find out that Havana Cafe is inspired by this very same restaurant in Havana, Cuba. From the Ropa Veja to the Cuban sandwich you can have a little taste of Cuba here in our very own Vancouver. 

Plus its great to sometimes get out of downtown to discover the diversity and eclectic neighborhoods that Vancouver has to offer.
