I went to Havana and searched out the only Chinese restaurant open after hurricane damage kept repairs being done elsewhere. It reminded me of an 80s Toronto Chinatown spot, flavors are familiar, but nothing stood out. It was owned & operated by a Mandarin speaking Chinese expat cook, and a local Cuban wife, a couple's business.
Stumbled on this video when planning my Havana trip as a Chinese Canadian - will definitely check out Barrio Chino when I'm there. Nice to see them speaking Cantonese too!
Aiyooo this chapter is so sad😢

Amazing doc.
Glad you think so!
Great documentary
Great video. When was it filmed?
Thank you!
It was so sad that their forefathers risked their life in boat to Cuba and what left for their descendants only poverty and memory.
