Whether you are visiting Panama or retiring in Panama, try these restaurants –Asian
Italian
North American You’ll find your usual Bennigan’s, McDonald’s and Hard Rock Café in Panama City – even Kentucky Fried Chicken, but you may want to try La Cascada on Avenida Balboa and Calle 25; 262-1297 where portions are weighed by the pound! For seafood, try Restaurante Mercado del Marisco, Avenida Balboa, 212-0071. Seafood is fresh and tasty. That’s because a fish market is right on the first floor but it’s very clean.
If you feel like old fashioned steaks, try Martín Fiero on Avenida Eusebio Morales; 264-1927 or 223-1333. Meats are imported from the US, and they have grilled meats and chicken plus pastas and seafood. But we recommend getting Panamanian meat if you can. It’s grass-fed beef and much healthier for you. For more information about the benefits of grass-fed meats, go to www.organicgrassfedbeefinfo.com.
Okay, you’ve had a taste of Panama City, you’ve shopped, and you’ve just devoured platefuls of food. Retiring in Panama is beginning to sound like a worthwhile idea, isn’t it?
