Portmann Dinner

The venue had to be changed due to torrential rains and storm from the traditional “Los Doce Apostoles” to El Templete” but sitting under a tarpaulin we were still mauled by the wind and the cold.

Both seafood and meat Paellas were excellent, the wines too and even though the cold made us leave earlier than expected it was a great night with Cuban friends.

I passed the Caps around embroidered “Portmann – 2010 – Habanomann” to celebrate his 40-th anniversary in the business.

I might not make it to a full dozen caps, but these half dozen are a beautiful souvenir of the trips to Cuba with the Portmann group.
