Thanksgiving in Costa Rica 2013
November 26th, 2013
Trying to find a good and comprehensive list of restaurants that offer a good Thanksgiving feast in Costa Rica is difficult. Several sites and user groups offer a few, but nothing really complete. Saying that, I am starting this list. It contains almost nothing, but I am asking that my readers:
1. Add in the comments any restaurants that you know offer a Thanksgiving dinner in CR. Include location and cost and opinion if possible. I will add it here on this blog page.
2. Spread the word by sending this direct link to anyone who you think might add to this list… i.e. eaters 🙂

The List – Please be proactive and add your favs in the comments! I know this is lame… so help me!!
As of Turkey Day at 7:30 AM, this experiment was not working well… only a handful of recommendations. Oh well…. Happy Thanksgiving to all my readers! Now, go pig out. As on your birthday, calories do not count today.
