Jeff In Costa Rica - July 1st

July 2nd, 2007 by Jeff Kee

Well Happy Canada Day to my fellow Canucks, and I’ll be sure to celebrate Independence Day with my American readers on the 4th of July. Too bad I don’t get to watch fireworks of the 4th of July from Costa Rica!

Today I had some food at a seafood restaurants recommended by locals as one of the best, and the most noticeable dish I had was called a Cervichè, which is a mix of vegetables and seafood in a salsa-like manner - plenty of fruit juices to keep it wet and still chunky and fabulous! You can eat it with a spoon, or you can put it on this chip-like thing, except it’s freshly fried and looks more like a tortilla, but very crispy!

These two photos show 2 different types of Cervichès.

Seafood happens to be one of my passions (and I love sushi, as you can imagine), and this was quite a treat for me to try out!

That’s nice to show us what you are eating, but how did you get to go to Panama and Costa Rica?

You mention you have a client there, but that is all. Throw us a bone man…

Is this seafood dish made of seafood that is not actualy heat cooked, but rather cured in the lime juice and other fruit juices? If so, I had this once and have been wondering what it was called so I could find it again.
