Drinking and eating in Costa Rica proved very satisfying. Pictured are just a few examples of our favorite items. As you can see there was various types of liquors consumed. Imperial is the Costa Rican beer, the cow drank quite a bit and needed to pee quite often. The cow also took a liking to the Anejo Centenario Rum. I have to admit it was very smooth. I stepped out a bit and drank the nations moonshine. It is called Guaro. I drank Guaro sours, Guaro and pineapple, Guaro anything.
Tropical fruits were abundant! We had mango, starfruit, lychee (although they don't call them by that name), watermelon, papaya, bananas and my favorite the PINEAPPLE.
Ceviche, fish dishes and seafood are the main staple foods. We ate ceviche in every form and fashion. From fancy restaurant to cheap street vendors it is a food of choice. If you look closely at the pizza picture you will see shrimp, lobster and other crustaceans. This was a strange combination for us.
PATACONES reigned supreme! These are plantains mashed into a type of pancake form and then deep fried until firm and crispy. They are served with pureed black beans and guacamole. Fabulous simple food.
