The Cuban TikToker known as Michel Crónicas recently shared a video of his father trying a beef burger for the first time, describing it in a few words as "special." The influencer, who celebrated the joyous occasion of his father's visa approval at the end of July, revealed in a TikTok video that they decided to have burgers for dinner to please his dad: "He wanted one with bacon and pineapple."
"Enjoy, Dad, this is for you," Michel noted. His father responded that he was very happy. "Very delicious, rich. Special!" he exclaimed while savoring the burger bite by bite.
The influencer has treated his father to a tour of Mexican cuisine. Just last Saturday, his father tried two delightful dishes: tacos and horchata.
In Mexico, as in other countries, Cubans are discovering a whole new world of possibilities. A Cuban woman visited a bakery in Mexico, and her reaction was captured in a viral video on social media. The woman went to a store selling flour-based products and, like many Cubans experiencing abundance for the first time, was amazed by the variety.
For others, it offers the chance to start a business. A young man born in the largest nation in the Caribbean shared on social media the "secret" to succeeding in Mexico with his own clothing brand, Habana Rytt Dustin. Rytt Dustin (@rytt_dustin) mentioned on TikTok that the goal was to create a new clothing brand "that had the essence of Cuba, but modern."
