A small detail for the casado typical plate, it has a couple origin stories about why it's named that. The first theory states that men would ask the women who typically cook at the sodas for more food and to treat them as married men or casados in the sense of a home cooked meal like their wives would make (mostly portion size. Another story says that the food is married to each other as it's all served together on one plate. Another theory states that a casado is the first meal as a married couple has, which has many small dishes to complement the rice and this way the wife will find out on the first day what her husband likes to eat.
Something fun to think about a typical and traditional Costa Rican lunch dish's name.

_confusing idioms_ - At 5: 20 Mark meant to say white whale not white elephant. _White elephant_ is essentially useless and unwanted but _white whale_ is the ultimate goal or an obsession in this case referring to CR's fantastic seafood.
_Chan_ - kinda like drinking brains or snot I almost spit my beer! I've had lots of chia seed drinks but not chan. Definitely will keep an eye out.
I haven't had tons of CR cuisine but this seemed really comprehensive. Well done.

Found myself chuckling through this. Lizano sauce- Literally on everything. BEST fruit- dare I say even superior to Hawaii? and interestingly I NEVER drank coffee until I went to CR! Now I am several nearly black cups a day! ( I like to order from Cafe Milagro. Appreciate this while we are locked back down in CA!

I love his videos. But there's a mistake about our dish known like casado and married aren't same. So casado is just name of dish but some restaurants write married typical food just have a name and it's casado that's it. Dish couldn't be known like married there isn't translate

Everyone should try the tres leches cake! Also, beer drinkers should have one of the many beers. My favorite was Imperial. Now that I think of it, I think I'll pick up some at my local liquor store. I hope it's authentic and not brewed for export as so many beers are.

You made me so hungry and thirsty watching this. I've traveled to Thailand many times but living in Florida I should have traveled here and not have to travel 28 hrs. To get to Thailand. I think its a 3 hr flight to Costa rica from here. Nice video's!

As someone from Costa Rica, adding French fries to the gallo pinto, just seems wrong idk, but there are other crazy combinations and to each their own, as long as you like it.
Also yes lizano is the best.

Don't sleep under the tree you are standing in front of. You may not ever wake up. A big tourist scare is of getting scopolamined in south america, that's the tree it comes from.

Had 6 days in CR last Oct 2019 and made sure 3 of those 6 days had Imperial in it. Made sure to get my last Imperial at the airport when returning to Belize, my home.
