                <description><![CDATA[Widely regarded as the best paladare in Havana (if not Cuba), La Guardia certainly doesn't disappoint. It is a restaurant that is located in a beautiful private home and boasts a fantastic menu. Booking is essential as it is quite small but very popular. We had the receptionist at our hotel (the very nice Sevilla in Old Havana) to call and book us a table. The walls are decorated with photos of previous patrons (not as tacky as it sounds), inlcuding Queen Sofía of Spain, Prince Albert of Monaco, Jack Nicholson, Steven Spielberg and Pedro Almodovar. The chair that Queen Sofia sat on is mounted on the wall.<br><br>It is located in central Havana, in a residential area. A taxi there is recommended. On approach to the building you may not think that you are not in the right place as there are no signs. You will walk (or may be escorted by a young boy for a couple of CUC) into a beautiful representation of Cuban shabby chic with huge sweeping marble staircases and wall murals. I think the restaurant is on the second floor. Stunning food, great decor, wonderful staff. Not only the best paladare in Havana, but from my experience the best restaurant. Very highly recommended.]]></description>
