COMIDA

Maybe it is just me, but I am always curious about food in other countries. Especially when people live there.Vacation eating is one thing, but day to day is a whole other story. Cooking most of our meals to save money has forced us to be creative . It also makes us realize how easy it is to eat light! Of course the heat and humidity help with not wanting anything too heavy. We have gone out for a few dinners, but tend to eat in most nights. We have had some amazing Italian food due to a big Italian population. Its quite a treat.




Nick has become the MASTER of making ceviche. It is really quite impressive and so delicious.
I finally figured out the way to make plantains!! SO good with quinoa and grilled chicken.
One of our few dinners out. AMAZING food at a local Italian place. Homemade ravioli, and fresh caught fish with puree of carrot and leek. Side of steamed veggies. Not too shabby. Brought out by the chef with a smile and a handshake.

There is nothing better than a cold Jugo de Natural...Sandia, Melon or fresa? We will take one of each.
Fresh farm produce from some local farmers. Thanks to our friend Carolina!!!
Tacos, Tacos and more Tacos. Lucky for me, It is one of my favorite foods to make and to eat.
Pipa Fria is THE drink. Good for hydrating, Hangovers or with a shot of rum! Who needs water?
Fresh fruit on banana bread with a side of cinammon cream at Nogis . Great breakfast.
A typical Costa Rican "sub" sandwich. Not quite as good as "Langers" in LA, but it is a close second.
