By Lorraine Caputo

La Cueva is said to be the bar of the friends of Gabriel Garcia Marquez. Well, La Cueva of today is definitely not the laid-back, eating and watering hole it was back when the native writer and his literary friends, the Grupo de Barranquilla, would stay into the wee hours.

Today it offers a select menu of exotic dishes with a Caribbean, Italian or Oriental flair at not-so-working-class prices. Even the full bar has some out of the ordinary drinks, like the mango margarita. Sometimes La Cueva hosts literary events, like Friday and Saturday nights when there's live Cuban music or jazz (no minimum consumption or door charge).

Open Monday-Thursday noon-3 p.m., 6-10:30 p.m., Friday and Saturday noon-3 p.m., 6 p.m.-1 a.m., closed Sunday.
