Chile Rojo

The night we arrived in Costa Rica we were disappointed to see a vacant lot and construction at the site of one of our favorite restaurants. However, as we walked back into town to find some dinner, there was Chile Rojo, at a new location. We've eaten there twice since, the owner is British but born in Africa and his partner is Japanese. They put out Japanese, Thai, and middle eastern dishes that are always terrific. Last night we sat across the street from the restaurnt where they have some tables on the beach. The gentle Caribean surf was breaking less than 20 feet from where we sat, a beeze moving along the beach. I think Steve would have no problem eating there every night.
We had a nice trip to Cauhuita yesterday to the National Park there and though it rained during the night and early hours of the morning, it looks beautiful again today. I have appreciated the clouds, they keep the sun from being too intense.
Tomorrow we will hit he farmers market early in the morning. I like to look for interesting fruit, though there is never anything to compare to the selection we had at Dad's in Puerto Rico!
