Hotel Quelitales Restaurant
Just outside the mountain town of Cachi, Hotel Quelitales entices guests (and non-guests on weekends) with one of the best traditional Costa Rican restaurants in the country. Chef José Alvarez serves an exceptionally tender rendition of corvina con salsa palmito (sea bass with heart-of-palm sauce), and he also makes the creamiest pejibaye (palm fruit) soup around. Order a cocktail featuring the regional spirit, guaro, a sugarcane liquor often served with tropical fruits and juices.
