When the service hits on you when you order drinks: El Be Club (18. April 2017)
The beach in Tamarindo is truly lovely – not too crowded, yet quite alive (especially compared to the Langosta beach which is right around the corner which is rather ‘dead’), and you find a lot of different places to have a drink or eat something small. Obviously, ‘happy hour’ is the time to visit any place (although some places have ‘happy hour all day long’ or ‘happy hour from 3pm to 6pm’ – which makes me think they don’t really get the concept of happy hour).
However, the ‘Pura Vida’ (2’000 CRC) you get at the El Be Club which is at the sea shore – so has quite a lovely view – is decent. Quite sweet really, but absolutely to my gusto. The service on the other hand is – well, with room for improvement – it took quite long until they finally managed to do the drinks and to bring them to us. Additionally, I had ordered water without ice, and got, TADA!, a glass full of ice. Really?
Well, enjoy the view when you’re at El Be Club – it is gorgeous. And don’t get annoyed by the ‘speed’ of the waiters or anything the like – just relax. The best thing to do in Tamarindo anyway – besides surfing maybe.

About the Author: Sven
I started the blog in October 2009, while living in Milan which I definitely consider to be one of the food capitals of the world. I was in touch with food since my early childhood (as my father is a former chef). Whenever I can, I travel the world to discover new places, to meet people but mostly to try local dishes and to find hidden gems! If you know a place worth going, please drop a line to: info@thediningexperience.org.
Currently, I am a member of the following food-related associations: Chevalier @Chaîne des Rôtisseurs Zurich-Ville; Membre Gourmet Dégustateur @Ordre Mondial des Gourmets Dégustateurs [OMGD]; Gesellschafter @Goldener Fisch and Member @Slowfood Convivium Zurich City.
