• Seitan! And best place to eat in Vinales!

I was really glad to find a restaurant with more than one or two vegetarian options in Cuba, Although the sign says that La Berenjena offers "comidas vegetarianas y mas", it really is mostly vegetarian. I ate there a couple of time and it was usually pretty good. I tried most vegan main dishes, and the ones I recommend are the Super Berenjena (with seitan!) and the Boliche (with pureed root veggies). I also fell in love with the Candela rum-based drink. If you like gingery juices and alcohol, you are going to enjoy this. I ordered it every single time. I couldn't believe there was actually seitan there. So, I ordered twice the seitan sandwich to go, which is a veganized version of the traditional Cuba sandwich. Unfortunately, there is nothing but seitan in the sandwich. It was still nice to eat for lunch during tours and on the beach, but it'd be better with tomatoes or just some sort of spread to make it moist. The place is packed, so get there early or be prepared to wait.
