"One of the many gems in San José’s Central Market, this busy ice cream stall has been delighting Ticos and tourists since 1901 with its mind-blowing vanilla ice cream. Yes, just vanilla. A single bite of the the light, fluffy scoop with notes of cinnamon and a heavy hit of vanilla bean will reveal why Alvaro Mora stuck to one flavor. Have it with a ranizado (shaved ice) and refresco en agua (juice), or a blackberry, papaya, or banana refresco de leche (milkshake)." - Bill Esparza
