🇬🇹 Guatemalan Street Food Tour: https://youtu.be/cpD5d1SL7e4?si=QPXTK1BQz49lj6wh 👕 T-shirts: https://store.migrationology.com/ 🌶 Ghost Chili: https://amzn.to/3PNTvNQ San José, Costa Rica - Welcome to San José, the capital and biggest city in Costa Rica, and one of the best places to eat Costa Rican food. Today we’re going on an ultimate Costa Rica street food tour, from the market to local restaurants and everything in between. Let’s go eat! First of all a huge thank you to: - Yeison and Samantha, follow them @mytanfeet - Alex and Roberto from Chepe Cletas Tours For taking me on this unforgettable Costa Rican food tour. Mercado Central de San José (San José Central Market) - We’re beginning this tour at the central market in San Jose, the best place to take in the sights, sounds and ingredients of Costa Rica. Soda Tala, San José Central Market (https://goo.gl/maps/w8k4P79QsErSDuW96) is without a doubt one of the city’s best stalls, known for their Gallo Pinto (Rice and beans) - the national dish of Costa Rica. We also tried Marisquería Brigitte for their Cadosas (Ceviche with Picaritas chips), which is something else you don’t want to miss. Finally, La Sorbetera de Lolo Mora is a perfect sweet finish to any market tour in San Jose. Super Cholo Gigante at Super Cholo Gigante, San José Meat Market - After walking around the market, we then headed to the Meat Market and in the back there’s a restaurant that specializes in bocas, or small places of food. Here you can get all the classic Costa Rican foods, authentic and cooked to perfection. Empanadas at La Empanadota - You can’t come to Costa Rica without trying an empanada and everyone seems to have their favorite. When they are deep fried hot and fresh and drizzled in five sticky sauces, they are hard to resist. Next up with tried Costa Rican Coffee at Café La Mancha (https://goo.gl/maps/SikNtuwndA759Uvi9) and it was the perfect afternoon boost. And finally we tried some unique Ice cream at the famous Corazón Contento Pastelería, San José, Costa Rica (https://goo.gl/maps/KGvnTQ6Cv7pEN4wg6) Again, thank you to Yeison and Samantha from My Tan Feet, and Alex and Roberto from Chepe Cletas Tours for taking me around San Jose, Costa Rica!

Isn't it fascinating how Brazilians and Costa Ricans share so much in common, including our daily staple of rice and beans? If it weren't for the language barrier, our countries could have even stronger bonds. ¡Amor desde Brasil a Costa Rica!

I was surprised that many Costa Ricans speak English, it is clear that they are a very educated population and not to mention their gastronomy, which goes almost unnoticed in the world but is clearly delicious!!!

I lived in San Jose for two years. It there is anything I miss about it, it's the food. I still frequently make Gallo Pinto here in the States.

Costa Rican here, just want to clarify what the guy at 30:32 said, gallo in Costa Rica means a small portion of food, usually eaten with a tortilla, but not necessarily. Thanks for coming to my country! you always have such positive energy I think it matches perfectly with our pura vida vibes haha
