On the Camino de Costa Rica, Stay With Local Families and Learn Cultural Lessons

"Having logged more than 10 miles and some serious elevation, I was ravenous when we reached La Cuchara de Mariana, a humble yet inviting restaurant where the owner, Mariana Céspedes, greeted us with a warm “Buen camino” and cold lavender-scented towels. The feast began with soup studded with green plantain, chayote, and sweet potato; then came a whole roasted trout, followed by coconut-milk caramels." - Travel + Leisure Editors

Awesome place, the food is just delightful, the best Nicaragüan food I ever had, the drinks are simply refreshing and tasty. I strongly recommend enchiladas and tajadas 👌👌👌
