Where in Cuba are you going - I go to Varadaro every year, it's lovely. I find though, the first day you arrive, they have loads of fresh stuff, wonderful cheese, etc., then after that, the food sucks.

They do make omelettes and eggs for breakfast - lots of bacon is available too. Lunch was always easy, I just stuck to salads and cold meat and some fruit. The fish was generally dodgy, watch the dairy, they had "curry" once and I was very sick - lack of adequate refridgeration. Most places in Cuba have "a la carte" restaurants you can make reservations to go there, the fish is good at those restaurants and the food is better as well.

One last "tip" - you can eat at people's houses, they sometimes offer lobster dinners for a nominal charge.

Have a great trip -- I can't go this year, hopefully next!

Itty, '53 chevy, you make me laugh (just goes to show how desperate some are to leave)
