A fonda in Obarrio where the buffet line moves to the smell of sofrito and the combo plate, rice plus spiced red beans plus your choice of meat, is what nearly everyone ends up with. Arroz, poroto, shredded beef or chicken in tomato sauce, fried plantains on the side: this is the food that has fed Panama City for generations. The open-air dining room is loud and cheerful in the way that only lunch crowds on a deadline can be.
