Costa Rica unique typical Restaurant at Limon Province

On the road from Guapiles to Limon City (Limon Province), you will find many typical restaurants ussually used by the travellers. Many of them ave the typical Costarrican foods that we have discussed in earlier posts, but there is a place that is very different to the others.

It is called Chalo.com! Its name is very funny because it reflects the virtual-internet like thinking of nowadays people. Its owner created this little place with the best humor, to give visitors a completely different view of everyday foods...including Ticos and Ticas. So in the Chalos.com Menu, also called Chalomenu.com, you can find:

• M.P.3 - Which is a crunchy tortilla with mushed beans and cheese.
• Canelonsini - A fresh tortilla with a very simple ommelet on top.
• Cuartodemilla - A fresh tortilla with "Salchichon".
• Among many others.

The place is also known by its Choco Chalo, which is a chocolate milk beverage with some extra ingredient, which secret wont be shared with the visitor. So if you want to try it, you must trust the owner and enjoy the flavors.

So, as an oxymoron, Chalos.com is an unique typical restaurant in the area. With its little "ranchito" it invites friends to come over and have a "gallito". A place to enjoy a different experience eating the same foods that always share in our houses, and share them with foreingers.
