Super Mas SUPERMARKET
( MAP GOOGLE MAP ; 2777-1162; 8am-8pm Mon-Sat, to 1pm Sun; )
Don't mistake this market for your average supermarket: the wondrous aisles of Super Mas
have an astonishing array of imported goods, fresh bread and liquor.
Tropical Sushi JAPANESE
( MAP GOOGLE MAP ; 2777-1710; meals US$10-27, all-you-can-eat sushi US$26; 4-10:30pm)
This is without doubt the best sushi on the central Pacific coast. Chef Fuji (originally from
Japan, and a resident of Costa Rica for 15 years) serves up delicious sushi and other au-
thentic Japanese cuisine in this cozy little spot. As he's the only one manning the kitchen,
expect to have a leisurely dining experience.
Although the sushi is a sure bet, the other menu offerings are also worth a try, such as
the donburi (pork or chicken and egg over rice), steamed dumplings and tempura.
Gran Inca PERUVIAN
( MAP GOOGLE MAP ; 2777-4347; mains US$7-15; 5-10pm Tue-Sun)
The no-frills look of this Peruvian-run spot belies the excellent food you'll find here. The
menu encompasses a variety of traditional dishes, ranging from Peruvian-style ceviche to
steak sautéed with peppers and onions. While the dishes might sound similar to Tico fare
found everywhere, the flavors are lively and distinctive, and a welcome change of pace.
Escalofrío ITALIAN
( MAP GOOGLE MAP ; 2777-1902; gelato $2, mains US$9-20; 2:30-10:30pm Tue-Sun; )
Gelato lovers should make a point of stopping here, to choose from more than 20 flavors
of the heavenly stuff. This spacious alfresco restaurant may also be the only game in town
on Sunday night during slow season, a godsend especially if you enjoy wood-fired pizza,
pasta and gnocchi.
Across the street, its deli makes excellent sandwiches with imported Italian meats and
cheeses, perfect for toting on excursions to Manuel Antonio.
