If a coffee window in Little Havana looks busy, take the hint. The ventanita is not just a caffeine stop; it is a public square with very small cups.

A colada is made for sharing. A cafecito is small for a reason. The conversation can be longer than the coffee itself.

THE LOCAL MOVE

Order a cafecito or a shared colada and make time for the ritual.
