There are plenty of
places to eat and drink
in San Miguel. By day, there are a number of reasonable lunch places in town, especially in the area around the bus terminal, where cheap comedores and pastry cafAİs offer quick and simple meals. By night the focus shifts to the comedores and fast-food chains (including
Wendy's
and
Pizza Hut
) along Av Roosevelt between 7a and 11a C Pte.
Bati Jugos Carlitos , 1a Av Nte and 4 C Pte. Small cafAİ serving excellent snacks, lunches and coffee, plus extremely good papaya licuados . Comedor Esmeralda , 8a Av Nte between 4a and 6a C Ote. Good, basic breakfasts and comidas a la vista . Closed Sun. El PaAsa , Av Roosevelt Sur opposite the Hotel TrA?pico Inn . Popular and reasonably priced Mexican food with outdoor tables. Gran Tejano , 4a C Ote, just up from the Parque. Large and reasonably priced steaks and meat dishes. La Barrita , 4a C Ote, two blocks up from the cathedral. Well-prepared and reasonably priced meat and chicken dishes in an informal setting. Closed Sun. La Pema , 5km from town on the road to UsulutA?n (tel 667 6055). El Salvador's most renowned restaurant. It's not cheap, but the huge servings of mariscada , a creamy soup with every conceivable type of seafood, and the bowls of fruit salad served as an accompaniment will mean you won't feel like eating again for a while.
