Reggae Bike Rides and Amazing Food

Posted by Souley 329 days ago (http://www.travelpod.com)

Puerto Viejo was a cool spot with some pretty good beaches and consistent Reggae beat coming out of every bar and restaurant. We ate some incredible food, although I'm sure it can be partly attributed to the fact that we had been eating essentially the same tastes for the last 5 weeks at the hotel in Sarapiqui so anything new was a welcomed change! Some of the standouts were Loco Natural, Cafe Viejo, Chili Rojo and Maxi's all the way down at Playa Manzanillo. OUr first day was spent just chillin and getting settled at our hotel. By the time we were ready to go out, we spent some time at Cafe Viejo, had a local buy us some drinks and welcome us to his town and got a real good vibe right off the bat.

About the food here Puerto Viejo Costa Rica

The food here is so fresh and flavorful...I haven't had a meal, smoothie or other drink that I haven't liked! The breakfasts here are very good - nothing like fresh eggs and fruit from this verdant place. Gallo Pinto is what they call a typical Costa Rican breakfast - eggs, rice and beans, fresh fruit. There are variations at different restaurants and "Soda's" - a Soda is a small outdoor local eating place with a simple menu.

And the coffee.....they say here that Juan Valdez of Columbia drinks Costa Rican coffee! I have had a Mojito - the best ever, and a Pina Colada that was superb. Okay well maybe two. Most of the time, I receive the plate of food and forget to photograph the delectable delights. But fortunately, I remembered to get the camera out a few times. (photos)
