Anybody doubting
the rejuvenating qualities of
gallo pinto
and bacon and eggs should drop into this cute

snacks and pancakes on offer, along with bottomless coffee and great views of the convent
from the front balcony.

good-value set lunches (US$3), but pretty much everyone in town agrees that the real
draw here are the
