Eating, drinking and entertainment
|
|
|
Liberia has several
restaurants
that are particularly good for breakfast and lunch. Local treats include
natilla
(soured cream) eaten with eggs or
gallo pinto
and tortillas. For a real feast, try the various
desayunos guanacastecos
(Guanacastecan breakfasts): hearty food, made to be worked off with hard labour. For rock-bottom cheap
lunches
, head for the stalls in the bus terminal,
Las Tinajas
or the town's various fried chicken places.
For
drinking
, places like
Las Tinajas
and
PizzerAa Pronto
are good for a quiet beer. The town's one
disco
,
KurA?
, next to the
PokopA
restaurant, gets lively with salsa and merengue, especially on weekends and holidays. The main Saturday evening activity, however, involves the locals parading around the Parque Central in their finery, hanging out, having an ice cream, and maybe going to the movies at the
Cine Olympia
, 100m north of the church, which shows a variety of English-language movies, including the latest art-house releases, as well as the usual action-adventure blockbusters. Other useful information
