About

First-time visitors should expect a casual roadside eatery serving chicharrones, the fried pork that gives the place its name.

The Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/share/1AcjiNyrYi/ carries the venue's updates, and five photos show the premises. San José, Tamarindo, Santa Teresa, Manuel Antonio, Jacó, Puerto Viejo, La Fortuna and Monteverde are among the places travellers may pass on the way.

A casado is a set lunch of rice, beans, plantain, salad and a choice of meat or fish, a staple served across the country. The Pacific coast has a marked dry season, while the Caribbean coast stays wet for much of the year. Costa Rica was part of the Spanish empire until independence in 1821, and coffee shaped its economy from the nineteenth century. Cloud forest, rainforest and dry tropical forest all occur within a short drive of each other.
