Are you a foodie looking for inspiration in the kitchen? Do you like to check out culinary events and food festivals when you travel abroad? If so, then you probably haven’t considered Costa Rica as a destination for expanding your food knowledge and getting your taste buds going. But before you move onto booking that trip to Italy or Peru, you might want to give the Land of Pura Vida a second look. While Costa Rica doesn’t have a famous cuisine, it’s still a great choice for a culinary vacation, especially if you want to mix it up with incredible vistas or outdoor adventures. There’s a still-growing and fun foodie culture in the country, and what better way to express that culture than through various food festivals and events?
