Get to know the traditions behind this region's cuisine. Make your adventure complete by checking out some of the local dining places.

Rice and plantains are among the ingredients that you'll commonly find in the local dishes.

Experience an authentic taste with local dishes like tamales (corn dough rolls) and corvina (baked fish).

For a wonderful dessert, or perhaps a sneaky afternoon snack, order raspados (ice topped with sweet syrup), a popular sweet treat.

If you enjoy a lager, ale or bitter, enjoy Balboa, a much-loved choice here.

If you don't feel like alcohol, resbaladera (chilled barley and rice drink) is an excellent finishing touch to any culinary adventure.

Even a basic greeting in one of the native languages will help you feel more at ease with everyone you meet. A fine example of a Spanish phrase is ¡Salud! (cheers/good health!). Also, knowing ¡Perdón, which means excuse me, is going to be another useful tool to have up your sleeve.
