Hey All!
Recently I traveled to Costa Rica with my family. We went to Liberia, Arenal, Monteverde, and Playa Flamingo. While there I took a ton of photos that I want to share with you all. I'll do these posts in three segments : Food, Flora & Fauna, and then a post with fun and random pictures I want to pass on.
Today's post is on the food I ate while there. If I remember the restaurant name I will include it. I will also give the food a rating off of a 10 point scale. (*** means 3 stars, etc.)
Enjoy!
