Cooking Costa Rica

 Gastronomy

Varied and tasty, Costa Rican cooking is composed of beef, pork and chicken served with rice and black beans (variants are obtained through the different sauces and vegetables). The grilled fish is also excellent as well as the delicious flat cakes made with sweetcorn. The true 'Tico' breakfast is copious with it's Gallo Pinto, fried rice and beans dish, which is delicious with the sweetcorn flat cakes, cream and Natillas. Fruit is in abundance: there are watermelons, pineapples, passion fruits, bananas, mangos, melons, guavas, and more. Of course we can't forget about the Costa Rican coffee, which is greatly consumed and famous worldwide. Costa Rica also produces rum of excellent quality. If you are eating out, you can eat very cheaply in the Sodas, which are typical small restaurants with set menus.
