What are the typical and most delicious foods from these countries? |
Travel Info Costa Rica Colombia Venezuela Panama Puerto Rico (I know this is not a country :) Travel Tips There's so many dishes out ther, so i'll just mention my favorites: Costa Rica - Chicheme and Picadillo de platanos Colombia - Ajiaco and sopa de mondongo Venezuela - Arepas, hallacas, and pabellon Panama - Gallo pinto and chocao paname帽o PR - pastelones de carne and Lechon asado (with Bacardi, of course!) I'm starving now! Others Venezuela-arepas I went to Costa Rica many years ago (probably been at least 10 years), but I stayed with a host family for a week. I remember eating alot of foods that would be the same as eating here in the US, but I do remember my host family served us alot of fruits, like bananas, papayas, passion fruit, grapes, mangos. I remember seeing a McDonald's in San Jose. Could smell the coffee when we left the airport..... I'm just gonna name them originally because don't know if there is a possible translation. Colombia - Ajiaco, Sancocho, Bandeja paisa. Puerto Rico - (people say it's great, but I found it kinda normal, but still it's typical) Mofongo Puerto Rico: Rice & red beans Pernil (fried pork) Carne guisada (stewed beef) bacalao (salted cod fish) tostones (plaintains pressed flat & fried twice) puerto rican coffe (expresso type) Fresh bread in the morning or evening snack Roasted pigs, chicken mofongo (ball made w/ smashed plantains & tripe) modongo (soup made w/ tripe) alcapurrias (fried & made w/ plantains) Rum is puerto ricos national drink I can go on & on Puerto Rico is a country (it is not fully sovereign but still it is a country). Panama was once a province of Colombia and it is the "fake country" in the list , not Puerto Rico, even panamanians recognize that their country was invented as an excuse for the creation of the panama canal. Get your history facts right, please. Puerto Rican cuisine is recognized worldwide. From Bacalaitos to Asopao de Pollo. From Pasteles to Arroz con Gandules. PR is a country. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/olympics... |
