Now in its eighth year, our annual Cuban Christmas page is up and running. Join us as we re-live some Cuban Christmas memories, plan our Noche Buena menu for this year, and get everything prepared for a traditional celebration.
Yes, Virginia, they did have Christmas trees in Cuban homes, at least before Castro. Most were rather small and shipped to Cuba from the United States and sold in American owned stores. Although the trees were usually small, everyone went all out with the decorations, so even a tiny tree looked very beautiful!
From Noche Buena to the feast of "Los Reyes Magos," help us preserve these wonderful Cuban traditions.
"There are so many great, simple recipes in this book, it quickly became a favorite in our home. These guys promise and really do get you cooking and laughing in the kitchen. The recipes are the result of more than 20 years of throwing fun Cuban parties. I highly recommend this book. It has beautiful photos and is just plain fun!"

"Three Guys From Miami Cook Cuban" is a 234-page Cuban cookbook packed with full-color pictures and 100 great Cuban recipes.
The Mall is full of the art deco architecture that has made Miami famous. A huge renovation a decade ago brought the Lincoln Road Mall back to its full splendor. Tourist brochures touted the Mall as the "Fifth Avenue of the South" back in the 1950's, and once you get there, you'll see why.
If you can't get a table on busy Collins Avenue (South Beach) on a Saturday night, your chances are a lot better here. On Sundays, there is a small farmer's market with fresh vegetables, fruits, and some remarkable fresh made bread.
The Lincoln Road Mall also features antique shows on weekends, with vendors setting up their wares along the sidewalk. The Colony Theater and the New World Symphony also make their homes here.
