      @stephg8984 You sound like those spoiled Canadians /Americans!
      Didn't you read up on anything before going or even watching a video?
      1. Latin American food tends to be more on the bland side to begin with
      2. Hotel food is generally bland.
      3. Also no one really goes to budget resorts for the food.
      4. Food in Cuba would be similar quality to what you would get in Mexico or Dom Republic.
      Yes the A La Carte food isnt really that great.
      Cuba is currently having a lot of problems and shortages due to an embargo by the American government. They cannot easily import anything they want.
      That said
      I went last year November after covid and after a hurricane and there were a lot of issues.
      Yet the food was still decent, and tasted a lot better than what most people said. Some of basic stuff was sometimes missing. There was absolutely no cereal...Who needs cereal when you can get fresh made omelets, home made bread, and pancakes?.
      Did you realize that the bread is a home made type brad and not Industrial bread that we have here in Canada or U.S?
      You mean with all that food you cant find anything you like?

Half the things are closed. These are things Finding Fish doesn't mention. No mention of the entertainment being closed. And yesterday - we had no running water for 7 hours. I don't think expecting running water in your room to be "spoiled". When we did get water back, we had a sewage backup and a flood in the bungalow.

Every time I've gotten the Cuba, I've had loads of food and loads of drink.
