Explora los sabores auténticos de Costa Rica en una experiencia gastronómica inolvidable.
Costa Rica is a country in Central America famous for its incredible nature, ranging from rainforests and cloud forests to coasts in the Caribbean and Pacific. It is a world leader in ecotourism and conservation, and has no military, having invested those resources in education and health.
Costa Rican cuisine, known as 'Tico' cuisine, is a reflection of its land: fresh, natural and comforting. It is not spicy or excessively seasoned cuisine; Its wealth lies in the quality of its ingredients. It is based on rice and beans, accompanied by an abundance of tropical fruits, fresh vegetables, and meats or fish.
The national breakfast par excellence. It is a mixture of rice and black or red beans, sautéed with onion, sweet pepper and cilantro. It is usually served with eggs, fried ripe plantains, tortillas and sometimes custard (sour cream).
A hearty and nutritious weekend soup. It is a beef stew with large pieces of vegetables and tubers such as yuca, chayote, elote (corn), tiquisque, ñampí and green plantain.
The Costa Rican version of ceviche. It is prepared with fresh fish (usually sea bass) marinated in lemon juice, with finely chopped onion, sweet pepper and lots of cilantro. It is often served with crackers or patacones.
The most popular bar 'boca' (tapa). It is served in a bowl and consists of layers of rice, beans, chicharrones (fried pork rinds), and a 'pico de gallo' (chopped tomato, onion, cilantro). It is served with tortilla chips.
Green plantain pieces smashed and fried twice until they are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. They are a very common side dish or appetizer, perfect for dipping into ground beans or guacamole.
A simple and tasty black bean soup, often blended to a creamy consistency. It is traditionally served with a chopped hard-boiled egg and white rice.
The pride of Costa Rica. The country produces some of the best Arabica coffee beans in the world. The traditional way to prepare it is with a 'chorreador', a cloth filter that allows a slow drip, extracting all the flavor.
Ubiquitous drinks made with fresh fruit, water or milk, and a little sugar. Popular flavors include pineapple, mango, passion fruit, blackberry and cas (a local sour guava).
The national liquor, a sugar cane distillate with a neutral flavor. The most famous is the Cacique brand. It is taken in shots or in the 'Guaro Sour' cocktail, mixed with lemon and soda.
Costa Rica's most popular and emblematic beer, recognizable by its eagle logo. It is a clear and refreshing lager, perfect for the tropical climate. Pilsen is the other big local brand.
A dessert loved throughout Latin America and very popular in Costa Rica. It is a spongy cake soaked in a mixture of three milks (evaporated, condensed and cream) and usually covered with meringue.
A homemade and comforting dessert. Rice cooked slowly in milk with sugar, cinnamon sticks and sometimes raisins and lemon zest. It can be enjoyed both hot and cold.
