I love having lunch at the Mercado in the center of town.
Ok, I ordered breakfast and John ordered lunch. They serve both throughout the day, regardless of time.
I had scrambled eggs with veggies, local cheese, avocado, gallo pinto which is rice and beans, and fried plantain. John had beef tacos which came with shredded cabbage topped with cream and ketchup.
We drank fresh juices, pitaya (dragon fruit) and calala (passion fruit), which came topped with plastic bags to keep the flies off.
To the right of the juices you can see a large jar with a red lid. That jar is filled with a delicious salsa that goes great on my eggs.
Total price, including both meals and juices: 220 cordobas ($7.00 U.S.)
My wonderful life in San Juan del Sur: Priceless
