Chicharrones here are meatier and more substantial than most you'll find elsewhere in Latin America, and that alone tells you what kind of place this is: a beloved chicharronera in the hills of Aserrí where locals gather the way Ticos gather at any good party, with limes, tortillas, black bean puree, and Salsa Lizano close at hand. Come with a group, order big, and expect cold Imperials alongside the kind of afternoon that runs longer than planned.
