Myself and Hajer Managed to get Yosra to look after Sara for a few hours and for the first time in ages we had a meal together on our own which felt so strange we spent almost the entire time calling to see if Sara was ok.

We decided to try out the restaurant near Yosra's apartment which is the Havana restaurant in the new area of enasser in Tunis. The restaurant was quiet as we where eating early and looked promising as it is clearly new and has a modern cum african style to it with the now obligatory plasma screen tv's around the walls to reassure us that someone spent some money decorating.

We where greeted with a smile and sat down as we where both starving especially myself as i have a hankering for creole/Caribbean food. Our first disappointment was the menu which seemed devoid of actual Cuban food and mostly consisted of french dishes which though nice sounding did not match what we anticipated.

We ordered the calamari and mussels for starter (circa 8 dinars each) and then the steak (16 dinars) and large prawns with mozzarella (24 dinars). Once we got into it the food was nice though not fantastically so considering the price which was not exactly expensive but not cheap either.

If your looking for a nice relaxing meal then this is not a bad place but hold in mind the Havana is only in the name not in the food.
