SAN JOSE, COSTA RICA FOOD: SODA RIVERA

Published on March 7, 2019May 11, 2026 by jacquelinemhadel4 Comments

A soda is a traditional “Mom and Pop” Costa Rican restaurant where the food is cheap and delicious. Soon after I arrived to the city in mid-February, I was on one of my explorative jaunts which always, never rarely, find me lost. But, lost is good for me. It’s how I find the unique things cities have to offer. Soda Rivera is so off-the-beaten path, that it doesn’t have a website or any mentions I could find on the internet, so I can’t even give you the address.

I wasn’t necessarily looking for a place to eat yet. Wasn’t actually hungry. What drew me to the place was this image of this man painting. The street art documenter in me was intrigued. I was just going to get a couple of shots and move on.

I must’ve stood out like a sore thumb, because this man, I think the manager, came out to greet me and usher me inside. Look at his sweet smile. I couldn’t tell him no.

He sat me down and then said some things to his staff, who then came over to help me and take my order.

Some Ticos (Costa Ricans) enjoying their lunches.

My first Chicken Casado in Costa Rica! And I was not disappointed. The plate was HUGE and it cost about $3.50 (usd) = 2100-2300 colones, if I remember correctly. A **casado** (Spanish, “married man”) is a Costa Rican meal using rice, black beans, plantains, salad, a tortilla, and an optional entrée that may include chicken, beef, pork, fish and so on. The term may have originated when restaurant customers asked to be treated as *casados*, since married men ate such meals at home. **Another theory is that the rice and beans and/or the grouping of dishes are *married*, since they are always together.** (wiki)

Close-up because…damn! Salad, Red beans, Plantains, chicken, rice, diced potatoes, onions…what a happy marriage!

It was amazing to eat in a full-on Tico establishment, with no other foreigners around. My seat was the open one you see across the counter between the man in the baseball cap and the (only other) woman.

I happened upon it again a couple of weeks later, but I still don’t know where it is. But, you can see the sign has been finished.

Fresh melon juice included with your meal. Ticos tend to drink juices with their meals, rather than water.

I like to see big jugs of picante sauce.

I highly recommend this place if you can find it. It’s total pura vida.

LAHORE , PAKISTAN : MAKIN’ JALEBI !

Published on July 17, 2018May 11, 2026 by jacquelinemhadel4 Comments

Jalebi, also known as zulbia and zalabia, is a sweet made by deep-frying maida flour batter in pretzel or circular shapes, which are then soaked in sugar syrup.

This kind Jalebi maker invited me to take pictures of his process. Awesome. And the Jalebi was delicious, too!
