Cost: Moderate
Type of place: Association
Cuchillo #1 (Bulevar del Barrio Chino)
(+53)7861 - 5396
Open 11am-midnight
  • El Gran Dragón is the first on the left as you enter Cuchillo from Calle Zanja and hence its touts will be the first ones to try and persuade you to enter. Specialties include wonton soup, chop suey, chow mein and fried rice, and the prices come in at less than CUC 5 a dish. Spread over three floors and with alfresco dining options outside. We would still recommend to keep on walking to the end, but hey.
