Cuba has been one of the few countries in the world that currently uses and recognises Hive as a payment method for exchanging goods and services, and although this digital currency is not widely adopted on the island, it is an innovative and attractive solution for its citizens and several businesses that have been integrating it into their operations, with Hive participating in the daily transaction history of some businesses. La Flor de Zapata, a restaurant located in the capital of this Caribbean country, welcomes with open arms all hivers who want to enjoy a good meal in the open air.
From meals to snacks and drinks, La Flor de Zapata offers a wide range of options that will leave you wanting more. I was really surprised by the variety of offerings and the taste of the food on offer, making this place a high quality option recommended for hanging out with friends or family.
The first thing I had the opportunity to try was the piña colada, which is my favourite drink and I couldn't pass it up, not because it's my favourite, but if you're ever in Havana, book this place and pin it on your map so you don't miss this great opportunity.
I also tried the spaghetti with tuna, the pork steak and the sangria drink, which are also gastronomic products prepared on site that are finger-licking good, literally. I've been there twice now in just one month, once with my work colleagues and then with a friend. Both times I had a great time there, as they also welcome you in their front door that overlooks the street where you can get some fresh air while you enjoy your meal.
This restaurant is run by who was in charge of training the staff in blockchain technology and digital payments. The customer service reminds you of the 2000's era, I can't say before as I was born in the last months of the last century, but I think you get my drift. This place is accompanied by a big peace and tranquility, despite being directly in the eyes of the street, consequent to materialize a time of amazing harmony.
La Flor de Zapata has been marked by me as one of my favourite places from now on, as it provides a healthy environment and pay-as-you-go facilities at very modest and respectable prices that are worth going to. Without a doubt, crypto adoption has worked and has had an effect and this is a current proof of that. Are you planning to go?
