Last order When the shrimp is gone, the griddle is off, and that is sometimes earlier.
September and October are quiet on this whole coast. We cut the hours, and some weeks we take a second day off. We post it on WhatsApp before we do it, so if you are driving down from Dominical, send a message first. Someone answers.
Whales pass here July to November, and again December to April. The town fills up, so does the counter, and six minutes turns into fifteen. Worth it either way.
Quiénes
Who is behind the counter.
We cooked at PLACEHOLDER: previous kitchen or town before this counter. The shrimp comes from PLACEHOLDER: confirm the boat, farm or town, and we chop it here every morning. When it runs out we turn the griddle off and put a note on the door. That happens. We would rather that than freeze it.
