Casa Miglis

Havana


There are many unusual juxtapositions at this Swedish-Cuban restaurant, hidden inside a battle-scarred tenement, where the cool Scandinavian-style interior is punctuated by the kind of avant-garde art that might have sprung from the mind of Ingmar Bergman. Then there's the food, a smorgasbord of international delights given extra zest by a couple of Swedish classics.

Tuck into toast skagen (prawns on toast), ceviche, Mexican chili and the crème de la crème: melt-in-your-mouth meatballs with mashed potato. The owner is a Swedish film director, hence the suspended chairs, empty picture frames, and zany little bar and performance space.
