I am from CR we eat very heathty that is why we do not use a lot of salt or other spicy things we try to keep it simple and natural like our beautiful country.

@OffTheGridHomesteadCostaRica 3 года назад

I agree...it is very healthy and that is one of the many reasons we came to Costa Rica.. We choose to live VERY HEALTHY. However, we do like some seasonings in our food. However, nothing wrong with plain healthy Costa Rica food. Thanks for your input.

When we go down to our house near Montezuma, I eat alot of Casadas. Typically Pollo. Their chicken is do fresh down there. Also Pizza from a small local chain called Henry's.

@OffTheGridHomesteadCostaRica 3 года назад

Yes...Casadas are a great way to taste the local flavor and the food most Ticos eat and they are the best prices if you want to save a bit of money. How is the Pizza there? I've yet to find a pizza that is similar to what I'm used to in the states...but I like a thick crust too....Can't find that in Costa Rica...or I haven't. Lol

@douglacoursiere2269 3 года назад

Not sure about thicker crusts. The ones we get are in between thick and thin crust. We normally go once a week with our Gringo friends. There was the best Italian place a few blocks down, when we first started coming down. But he was fooling around with a local and his wife split. The restaurant closed, but it was the best Italian food I have ever had. Especially the Teramesu.

@OffTheGridHomesteadCostaRica 3 года назад

@@douglacoursiere2269 That's interesting...Next time we are there, we'll have to give it a try. Funny thing here... San Vito is founded by the Italians...but they must have forgotten how to cook pizza. We've ordered pizza there and it came out with American Singles as the cheese on top.??? I thought...WHAT ...maybe they were out of cheese? Lol Funny things happen in Costa Rica. Lol

Do you guys live near San Isidro? We are looking to move from Florida to CR, would love to be up in some elevation for better / cooler weather, but also be able to see the ocean

@OffTheGridHomesteadCostaRica 3 года назад

Yes...we live in San Isidro, and love the cool weather, but you can’t see the ocean from here. But, if you ride the coast, you’ll see lots of mountains close enough to the ocean where you can enjoy cool temps and see the ocean. Those lots come at a premium....but if you are diligent in your search....you can find some good deals.

@TheAprizzle92 3 года назад

Can you guys make a video on the best places to live in Costa Rica? But a detailed one please. Also which region are you in? That background is something divine.

@OffTheGridHomesteadCostaRica 3 года назад

Hey buddy, Thanks for your comment and YES, we sure can. We were just talking about doing some drive through type videos of some of the towns we've lived in, but I think doing a video like you described...."Best Places to live in Costa Rica" would be great. Tell me, what type of places are YOU thinking? Near beach, mountains, in the town, outskirts of the towns or city? At the moment, we live in Rivas...which is about 20 minutes outside of Perez Zeledon, San Isidro. You can see a map by going to this link: www.google.com/maps/place/Guadalupe,+San+Jos%C3%A9+Province,+Rivas,+Costa+Rica/@9.4190873,-83.6628266,13.73z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x8fa14bbb3746c7cd:0xbaba28db5b9e5079!8m2!3d9.4288038!4d-83.6461481 You may need to copy and paste it in google.

@TheAprizzle92 3 года назад

@@OffTheGridHomesteadCostaRica Thanks for your reply bro, and please let me explain. I've been to CR just once for a week only, however I stayed in San Jose (hated it) and Santa Teresa (loved). From what I've noticed, the Pacific side is more to my liking, since I don't speak any Spanish and didn't get gringo priced. Since I was only there for a week, I wanted to know more about the best places, ideally with more expats/foreigners such as Santa Teresa or Tamarindo, doesn't have to be on the beach. PS- Nobody has done this, you should. You should warn newcomers to CR about the fact ATM's stop working at midnight.

@chrisrobinson79 3 года назад

I’ve got a lot of info from you guys thanks. Another good one on food. Just a quick question is it safe to use motorbikes to get around everywhere. Do you have to be careful where you leave them eg. Restaurant or a night out.

@OffTheGridHomesteadCostaRica 3 года назад

YES, it is safe to use motorbikes. The first several years...we ONLY had a motorbike. YOU MUST BE observant. Like a lot of places...some drivers do NOT respect motorbikes.. You can lock the steering...so really no worries about any one stealing your bike. Your helmet...YES, if you have a nice one. Buy a carrying case to put on the back of your bike to lock up your helmet, rain gear, and misc things.

Yes the food is great and if you want to kick it up, as Emeril would say, at most restaurants there will be Salsa Lizano and hot sauce available. Then there is food made with chili Panamanian pepper. Gallo pinto which is a national breakfast beans and rice staple and a casado for lunch. Another great video, and spectacular view from your table. Pura Vida

At present, masks and social distancing are required. An exception is once seated in a restaurant to eat.
