Cuba Compagnie

Bonaire


The capital's hottest spot is this sultry Cuban cafe, especially on Thursday night, when salsa dancers strut their stuff. Any night of the week the place is packed with happy patrons sipping mojitos and feasting on fusion fare. The atmospheric interior is adorned with eclectic artwork and old photographs, but the outdoor seating area is the place to be.
