Eating, Drinking and Entertainment
Liberia has several restaurants that are particularly good for breakfast and lunch. Local treats include natilla (soured cream) eaten with eggs or gallo pinto and tortillas. For a real feast, try the various desayunos guanacastecos (Guanacastecan breakfasts): hearty food, made to be worked off with hard labour. For rock-bottom cheap lunches , head for the stalls in the bus terminal, Las Tinajas or the town's various fried chicken places. For drinking , places like Las Tinajas and Pizzeria Pronto are good for a quiet beer. The town's one disco , Kuru , next to the Pokopi restaurant, gets lively with salsa and merengue, especially on weekends and holidays. The main Saturday evening activity, however, involves the locals parading around the Parque Central in their finery, hanging out, having an ice cream, and maybe going to the movies at the Cine Olympia , 100m north of the church, which shows a variety of English-language movies, including the latest art-house releases, as well as the usual action-adventure blockbusters.
