ABOUT THE LIVING LIFE IN COSTA RICA BLOG

I (Vicki Skinner - aka "THE Sarong Goddess") created this blog in 2007 to share DETAILED Finds•Lists•Info•Events•Experiences to help bring more EASE to people living in, visiting or thinking of moving to Costa Rica since DETAILS are NOT easy to find!
I’m NOT an expert (an "expert" 2 ME knows 101%-NOT me). I believe in sharin info•helping where I can! And with over 2,200 entries, so some things might be out of date, so if you find old info PLEASE help each other by getting the updated info & sharing it with me to revise. At least you have some basic info to get you started.
VOLUNTEER TO HELP:
Better yet - do you have extra time on your hands & looking for a volunteer project? Since this blog is a labor of love & RARELY does anyone share a donation (even though MANY have said how much it's helped them), I could REALLY use help updating info. Spanish speakers ESPECIALLY welcome since my VicLish can be somewhat limited at times!!

ESQUINA ARGENTINA - Vicki's FAVORITE "SODA" Restaurant in Costa Rica (Escazu & now also in Guachipelin)


ESQUINA ARGENTINA Restaurant
(Escazu Centro  -  2-288-2811  •  Guiche)

A MEGA VIC’S PICK’S!!!
This is LITERALLY my #1 FAV “Soda” (a "soda" in Costa Rica is a little cheapo restaurant)!!!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS PLACE!! MEGA CHEAP & AWESOME!! FLAME GRILLED CASADAS (rice & beans or fresh mashed potatos and veges) - GRILLED beef, chicken, ribs, pork, fish (& sometimes tongue) & LOTS of DELISH CHIMICHURI SAUCE (parsley, olive oil, lemon, a tiny bit of vinegar, salt and LOTS of garlic!!) WITH a REALLY tasty salad PLUS a natural fresh fruit drink for 3,000-3,500-colones (around $6-$7).



MY fav is Costadas (ribs), mashed potatoes, veges, MUCHO MUCHO chimichuri sauce (ChimiChuri sauce is parsley, LOTS of garlic and olive oil traditionally) on EVERYTHING and Cass drink!!!!

CHEAP BREAKFASTS!

Dr. Gene McDonald always RAVED about their Lasagna on Wednesday. A nice size piece for around 1,750-c.
