Farewell, Tío Juanpa and Tía Kelly!

We recently enjoyed the company of our family from Bocas del Toro, Juan Pablo and Kelly, who stayed with us at the apartment for a couple of days. We ate lots of pizza, held the first ever Annual Fifa Street Championship and managed to get a babysitter during a weekday so Gustavo and I could go have dinner with them like normal people (a.k.a. grown-ups) during their last night in town.

We decided to try La Posta, a cozy little restaurant near Calle Uruguay in Bella Vista. The first thing I noticed was how crowded it was even though it was the middle of the week. I also liked the decoration, the fact that it brought out so nicely the details of its architecture. When you go in it's like going back a century, everything's white and, although mostly wooden, looks like it should have looked when they first built it. Tropical, sobre and elegant. Great combination.

As for the food, I have no complaints. The entrées were just delicious (try the Fried Polenta with Portobello Mushrooms!) and, although Juan Pablo was not quite satisfied with his Passionfruit Jumbo Shrimp, I am very happy I went for the Salmon with Dijon Mustard Crust. Fabulous!

Thanks to Juanpa and Kelly for the great company (also to Waldy who dropped by), and see ya next time at the Pinky Inn!
