"The Brecht forum is a boring cafe by day, and one of Havana’s hippest music spots by night. The crowd is mostly young Cubans, not tourists. Wednesday nights are guaranteed fun with Interactivo, a funky, big-band style jazz group playing a raucous set from about 11:30pm-1:30am. Also look out for shows by Telmary, a similar funky hip-hop Jazz fusion. Cover is $5 for foreigners, and they stay open late." - Noah Friedman-Rudovsky
