We just did walking food tour in Old San Juan with Yoli and had an amazing time! A foodie friend of mine attended this tour a few weeks earlier and highly recommended it to us. Yoli - you were awesome - you really taught us so much about PR culture. Your energy was contagious! We left with a full stomach and a happy heart!
Our itinerary is below. We did the Sunday, 4:30pm tour.
First Stop: Cuatro Sombras
- Cortadito (Expresso shot+ Milk)
- Croissant (Crossiant w/ black forest ham, provolone cheese and guava butter)
This was my favorite. 100% PR coffee and the guava butter really made this sandwich a standout!
Second Stop: Sr Paleta
- Strawberry Lemonade Popsicle
Third Stop: Café el Punto
- Alcapurria (fried plantain, yuca, yautía, beef and garlic)
-Ceviche (grouper fish, lime, onions, avocado and cilantro)
Another huge favorite of ours!
Fourth Stop: Patio de Sam
- Piña Colada (rum, pinnaple juice and coconut cream)
- Mofongo (fried mashed plantains with garlic and olive oil
