The best meal I have ever had!steemCreated with Sketch.

Let me tell you the short story of the most rewarding and delicious meal I have ever had. Me and my buddy had decided to not be boring over our 2016 summer break. We decided to buy some cheap round trip tickets to Costa Rica and backpack there for 6 weeks. This was my first time traveling to a new country, and the first time I had flown in a plane since I was a small child. The flight was long, and the layovers were longer. We didn't want to spend money on expensive airport food so we decided to tough it out (only eating a single snickers bar). Finally we made it to San Jose, but it wasn't over yet. We needed to make it to our couch surfing destination in a country where we could barely speak the language. Eventually we found the right bus and made it to the couch surfer's house. After we had slept our first night in a new country, we were both very hungry. We had some passion fruit and cereal in the morning, but we hadn't eaten a filling meal since we departed. We needed to get out of San Jose and make it to our first destination though. We took a bus to La Fortuna. We found a hostile to stay at for the night and made our way to the first restaurant we could find. It was a nice little touristy place called the Lava Lounge. At this point I would have been happy eating a piece of cardboard. We both quickly decided on the arroz con pollo, and let me tell ya, I've never had a more satisfying meal ever in my life. I felt reborn and ready to take on anything that came my way! We came back to the lava lounge a few more times during our trip, and it was just as good as when I tasted it starving. The spices are just right!
