La Comelona
About
In Costa Rica, La Comelona occupies a spot in Limón, contiguo a, Cangrejos cancha sintética La Mejenga, on the Caribbean side of the country. It is known locally as a small, neighbourhood-scale operation rather than a large commercial outfit, and first-time visitors should expect a casual setting with a steady local trade.
A 4.7 out of 5 average from 11 reviews gives it a strong standing among those who have stopped by, with the score reflecting a modest but consistent set of opinions. Reaching Limón from the main resorts takes planning: San José, Tamarindo, Santa Teresa, Manuel Antonio and Jacó all lie on the Pacific side, while Puerto Viejo is the nearest of the listed towns along this coast.
Spanish is the official language, and Costa Rican Spanish is known for its use of vos and the phrase pura vida.
Altitude shapes the country's weather, and the Central Valley and mountain towns are cooler than the coasts, so conditions shift noticeably between Limón and the interior. Costa Rica lies between the Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean Sea, with volcanic ranges running down its centre, and the Caribbean side stays wet for much of the year. Gallo pinto, rice and beans fried with onion and coriander, is the standard breakfast, and worth seeking out before travelling east.
