Caribbean Travel + Life
Savors San Juan-Whether you're looking to sample the best of local dining or to deepen your appreciation of Puerto Rican cuisine and culture, the leisurely walking tours offered by Flavors of San Juan deliver a portion of history along with a plate (or two or three) of food. A tour of four dining stops interspersed with insights, anecdotes and photo opportunities starts with a piña colada before moving on to celebrate the island's culinary highlights, from tapas to traditional dishes and desserts to a bracing mug of café con leche. Departing daily at 5 p.m, the two hour jaunt is perfectly timed to allow a jump start on San Juan's famed night life after the tour ends. |

Frommer's Guide to Puerto Rico
For a fantastic overview of authentic Puerto Rican cuisine, we highly recommend the walking/noshing tour, Flavors of San Juan (787 964-2447 / www.flavorsofsanjuan.com, $75, no children under 18, daily 2- hour tours at 5pm). Itineraries vary, but samples may include tostones, mofongo, tapas at a Spanish restaurant (where the owner serenaded us a cappella), rum or beer samples, and possibly a mojito and French fries at tour guide Leslie Padró's favorite French bistro. Padró is a former CNN staffer from Atlanta, and she kept this tour informative and relaxed, as if sharing her local finds with friends. Very pregnant during our tour, she nonetheless got behind the bistro bar to help make the mojitos. |
