Malecon

When Winter rears its head it's handy to know that you can nip into Malecon for a blast of Latin razzmatazz. This Havana-themed hangout packs them in no matter what the weather. With live bands strumming their stuff and cocktails galore, you'll soon forget that February has 27 days left to run. Peckish punters have a choice of both tapas and more substantial fare, with tempting dishes such as Butterfly Lobster and Lasagna al Salmone on the main menu. And if you really want to go Castro, Malecon has a roster of hand-rolled cigars to get stuck into.
