THE COLDEST BEERS IN COSTA RICA:LOS FAROLES RESTAURANTE Y PIZZERIA JACO BEACH COSTA RICA
Id discovered this great little bar the night before. Its on the main drag of Jaco, at the north end of town. Its literally across the street form the Best Western Hotel, where Id spent the last couple of nights. Id gone in the night before to catch a local singer, a guy named Benjamin, and expat from Arkansas whom Id seen the night before at another bar in Jaco. His style of laid-back music seemed appropriate for what I thought was going to be my last night in the country.

TAKEOUT BELIZE STYLE
Pop N Taco really doesnt look like a restaurant; in fact to be honest it really doesnt look like much at all. A tiny little hole in the wall perched on the corner with an open door leading to a long wooden counter. At first glance you think its a corner store, one of hundreds like it scattered around the city. Only when you step inside do you notice the four stools pulled up by the counter, and the small table and two chairs off to the side.
