HAVANA - His wife may have had some initial reservations about Cuban cuisine, but Prince Charles was so enchanted that he asked for some black bean croquettes to take away with him at a tasting session during the British royals’ historic trip to Communist-run Cuba.
Their three-day trip to Cuba was tacked onto their Caribbean tour of former and current British territories at the request of the UK government. The visit underscores warming relations between Britain and Cuba, even as the administration of U.S. President Donald Trump seeks to isolate the Cuban government.
Classic Cuban dishes include “ropa vieja” or shredded meat and “moros y cristianos,” a reference to the medieval battle between Islamic Moors and Christian Spaniards and used to designate rice and black beans. Camilla made headlines ahead of the visit, reportedly saying she was not so sure about Cuban food, prompting the British embassy to organize the event.
