Long live Cuban cuisine! Rum, cigars, vintage cars, cold drinks, plenty of sunshine, stunning beaches, vibrant people, and lots of rhythm - this is what makes Cuba the current dream travel destination number one. The Caribbean island also has a lot to offer in terms of culinary delights: African, Spanish, Italian, and Caribbean influences create a taste that is both exotic and familiar. Photographer Ralf Niemzig fell in love not only with the Caribbean island and its cuisine during his study stay in Havana but also with his wife. Now, he has managed to extract her mother’s best and most closely guarded recipes. Whether he had to start a revolución for that or if a few mojitos were enough, he hasn’t revealed, but he has shared the family recipes! Appetizers, side dishes, rice, meat, and fish dishes, topped off with desserts and pastries.
