I was in Independence Park and a friend invited me to have a Caipirinha, I think it was something more Cuban, a cold lemonade, delicious and ice cold. She told me right there on that corner you can hear good music and the place is cozy and feels special.
Without thinking about the prices, which are very high with respect to the salary, well if I stop at the salary the overwhelm will not go away, as I entered "Tu casa bar" with my friend.
The rooms with a decoration full of cultural symbols let's say international. Tennis of recognized brands, Nike, Adidas, mirrors of all sizes.
A poster of Marilyn Monroe in tune with the fame of Blonde, the movie that recreates her life and in which the protagonist is the Cuban Ana de Armas.
Another poster of Bad bony a reguetonero whose songs are very popular among young people. I don't even know his image because I have only heard his lyrics occasionally on the street, so I had to ask.
Many small photos of artists or attractive people. We continued up the stairs and in the middle of the staircase in the landing we found the walls full of car plates, flags and again mirrors.
Musical instruments hung on the wall and also an old piano was there, I think a little sad because of disuse.
I liked the music that set the ambiance of the place. Maná" was playing. I confess that I love it. It is the soundtrack of my adolescence/youth. Every day I find myself humming "Mariposa traicionera", "Penélope", "Cómo quisiera" and so many others. I would love to go to a live concert.
Religiosity was present in a place to pay tribute to San Lazaro, a saint deeply rooted in Cuba's religious traditions. A huge mirror, they call it the mirror of fame, because everyone who visits "Tu casa bar" takes pictures there and then posts them on Instagram or Facebook.
An old-fashioned typewriter, another mirror, you could almost call this the house of mirrors. A wooden boat with sails. Who to be small and wander into its holds to see the treasures of the pirate ship. But they pulled me by the arm, come on, there are more things to see.
We finally arrived at the roof, with a wooden roof without walls, a sort of seating, some comfortable, cushions, sofas, other more rustic wood. The cozy atmosphere to chat, take fresh air and watch the city below that followed its pace as if no one was watching from above.
The Caipirinha I mean the lemonade, delicious. Cold and spectacular. The bar with a geeky, emo, casual look in its decoration. The bartender was a nice guy and the waitresses were just like him.
There was also a giant dog. It looked like the owner of the house. He was a big dog that roamed all the seats and finally took turns sleeping in his favorite seat.
We accompanied the lemonade with crispy croquettes, dressing and finally a coffee. Thus we spent the evening with a pleasant conversation and nice music in a cozy atmosphere. "Tu casa bar" is worth it, enjoy the walk with me.
