Habana Cuba Los Angeles

First established in Habana, Cuba in 1820 as "La Piña de Plata" (The Silver Pineapple), then in 1898 being renamed "La Florida", the place was finally christened and referred to as "La Floridita" by its customers. To Hemingway, the restaurant was his favorite place as is depicted by the following excerpt from author Norberto Fuentes' book Hemingway in Cuba.

Los Angeles is the largest city in the state of California and the second largest in the United States. Los Angeles is a great city one of its own kind in whole world.Often abbreviated as L.A. and nicknamed The City of Angels, Los Angeles has an estimated population of 3.98 million.I visited it last time in July and was impressed with the hospitality and kindness.Every thing from Airport taxi to hotel tour guys all was good.Airport limo was fun to have in such a low price. I was amazed by the choices of transportation,like you could have a choper to go to downtown for few hundred dollars. All museums and downtown were full of fun loving people.Los Angeles is the place man,i would love to go their over and over.
