The local people know that chicken and beef are among this region's most well-known ingredients.
Experience your trip with all of your senses by experimenting with some of the area's best dishes. Tipico salvadoreno (eggs, cheese, tortillas) and casamiento (rice and black beans) are interesting choices here.

A further useful expression is "Este caballero pagará por todo" ("This gentleman will pay for everything").
