After visiting Costa Rica's southern pacific zone for a while, one begins to notice that Costa Rica is not bound by the normal 3 rules of picking a good spot for your restaurant. Those 3 being:
- Location
- Location and then
- Location
Jolly Rodgers is this in spades. It's just a bit off the beaten path.
What's kinda funny is that it is up by where I live in Escaleras so it is actually convenient for me. But if you don't live in Escaleras, you've got to engage your 4 wheel drive differential and get on up the hill.
The access is part of the charm. Nat & I went over for our loosely styled tradition. Saturday nights at Jolly Rodgers are a regular poker night and so we like to get there around 6:00, which is before the poker players show. We don't play poker, but we enjoy the festive feel of the evening.
