For a local business in Costa Rica, Helado Central operates from Mercado Central, San José, Paso De La Vaca, 10102, Costa Rica. It is known for frozen treats served from its stall inside the Mercado Central in San José. First-time visitors should expect a market counter rather than a standalone shop, and two photographs sit on the listing.
A 4.7 out of 5 average from 494 reviews places it among the city's reviewed food businesses, and its Facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/lasorbeteradelolomoracr carries updates. Reaching it from Tamarindo, Santa Teresa, Manuel Antonio, Jacó, Puerto Viejo, La Fortuna or Monteverde involves road travel to the capital, and ferries cross the Gulf of Nicoya to the Nicoya Peninsula, while small aircraft serve coastal destinations.
Spanish is the official language, and Costa Rican Spanish is known for its use of vos and the phrase pura vida. Costa Rican cooking uses fresh fruit, plantain and Salsa Lizano, and coffee from the Central Valley is a major export.
Costa Rica abolished its army in 1948 and has no standing military. The Mercado Central address keeps the stall within the capital's central market district.
