San Jose, Costa Rica

The source


So nice to (for once) know exactly where the product is coming from. Fresh, quality coffee beans. Definitely one of the better cappuccinos I have had. (and I am picky)



in El Mercado Central in downtown San Jose. So yummy! I just wish they didn't serve fries with everything...


Such an incredibly good idea. I don't know why more places don't do this. I ordered and iced tea, and this is what I got. An iced tea slushy! Could not have been happier. (And I really miss their version of lemons.)

A traditional Costa Rican tamal, which my host my served for dinner one night



I'm fairly certain my host mom thought I was on a diet the whole time I was there. I can't complain though. Wonderful food every night. Maybe not incredibly traditional, but always fresh and always tasty.

I can't remember the name of this restaurant. I was in the heart of downtown San Jose. One of those cool bars/restaurants with 2 levels and a balcony. This was fried yuca call " " and SO delicious fried pork chunks which is their version of "chicharrones".


Fruit Festival at the school I was studying Spanish at. Yumm.



This is at a restaurant called El Balcón de los Mariscos. The seafood was amazing. Seafood and rice was my favorite thing there. The piña coladas were AMAZING. However, I ended with just a picture of what I was served when I ordered a "cuba libre." haha. We all got quite a kick out of it. (and no, it did not taste good.)
