Cuba–USA Fine Cuisine Project

HAVANA TIMES, May 14 — The independent “Paladar Project,” which is bringing together ten prominent New York City chefs and ten private entrepreneurs from Cuban restaurants, will be presented here in the capital during the 11th Havana Bienal arts festival, reported the AP.

According to the organizers, the project has no relationship with Cuban governmental institutions and is being funded by US citizens in order to “bridge the gaps of culture, language and the more than a half century of animosity between Washington and Havana.”

For ten days the chefs will take turns preparing and serving gourmet meals to selected artists and guests in the back courtyard of a cultural center in Old Havana.
