    We travel to Costa Rica every year. Their food is hands down the best we have eaten on any vacation and we have traveled the world.

    Never thought you'd ever go to Costa Rica! The cuisine, while much simpler than it's neighbors, is rooted in using the freshest and best ingredients, which makes everything taste amazing. I hope you make it to the Central market in San Jose, which opened in 1880 and has some of the best food in the country. Also across the street from it is a butcher shop that has the best fried chicken I've ever had!

    Mike!! I am very happy that you are in my country Costa Rica!! Fast food restaurants in Costa Rica are generally very beautiful and very clean, perhaps because people go to the restaurant to eat and not like here in the USA where people only order for takeout … And yes, McDonald's chicken is a star here among the “Ticos”.
    I hope you have a great time in my little country. I live in Florida and I miss it so much!!!

    • @Goldenkitten1
      @Goldenkitten1 6 місяців тому +3

      I think the implication of using "beautiful" was more along the lines of "clean". Usually when I go to a local McDonalds (even in nicer places) there's junk needing to be mopped all over the floor and half the tables are dirty with leftovers, and the less said about the bathrooms the better. They may have a similar layout but the care taken in maintaining it makes all the difference.

    I recommend that you visit "Puerto Viejo" is one of the most touristic places that Costa Rica has, and with more culture of the same, there you will find all the typical food that you want.
    Hope you enjoy each second here!

    • @gootywooty
      @gootywooty 7 місяців тому

      It's usually because it's handled by a branch of McD's for example thats native to the country. The same McDs in the US isn't directly managing the ones abroad hence why they're different in the first place to cater to the local market and may bring out limited edition items or be a bit more daring with their choices.
