New Restaurant La Posada

Or as I call it, "the Argentina restaurant" because it has so many signs on top of the building you really can't tell what the name of it is. But it is owned by a lovely Argentinian couple and they make some good food. But, of course, it's the coffee that has to be good in my book. Cappucino, served up with almond cookies. yum, yum, wish I had one right now.
I just learned that some of Peet's Coffee (one of my favorites in the states) comes from beans grown right here in Boquete!! How cool is that!

Boquete, known for fine coffee

Cafe Ruiz, known for outstanding coffee for several generations from a local family living here in Boquete. It is very nice to sit outside while having your coffee, or latte, with a sweet (dulce) or sandwich and watch the people walking along the main road through Boquete. It is just far enough out of the major downtown part to be tranquil but close.

I walked down yesterday morning instead of making my usual espresso at home, and stopped in and had a double (doble) espresso with milk (leche) on the side so I could add as little or as much as I want. $1.30. and since I hadn't had breakfast and I didn't want anything sweet I had an Americano sandwich, which was ham and cheese for an additional $1.50. A very good way to start the day.
I peeked in the "no admitance" part of the working coffee processing area and was surprised to see how modern everything was. Quite a large production area.
I bought a pound of their special espresso beans, not the regular variety and I made it this morning and it was Delicious!
