Popular spot on Obispo: "Daylife too, actually" Cuba Nightlife Tip by alza

On my first night in Havana, I was at a bar beside the Hotel Inglaterra, trying to figure out how to order a good rum without using my hands. Damassos helped me choose, it was Havana Club, 5 years old, real smooth!

The night was young, he took me to a bar on Obispo Street where he soon realised that I was better at sampling mojitos and singing with the live band, than at dancing... So he danced (splendidly!) with Grace, and soon we were six around the table, all Cubans except me. I understood enough to feel the friendship and that bar is a fond memory.

Most of the time, I went to a bar in the afternoon. For some reason, I always happened upon an empty bar, where old musicians were playing and happy to have an audience of one, me! I think it was called Montserrate.
