Mona Lisa has bar type stuff at the actual bar - bitterballen and other small plates. You can usually find local business folks there after work. Mi Banana - perpetual favorite! Meat/fish, plantains/fries and a couple beers. Save room for the BEST tres leches cake. Wattaburger always good for a quick lunch. Food trucks, on the water front, the intersection in front of the prison and in the soccer stadium parking lot. Buy fruit right off the Venezuelans boat. We usually grab a bucket of KFC for dinner then lunch and snacks. Weight your bags and take some food - couple pounds of pasta, I wrap frozen chicken/steak (organic) in the wetsuits and its still frozen when we arrive, salami and hard meats. Plazita Lamena has a mixed grill that usually yields plenty of leftovers. (I do miss Casablanca mixed grill) Hit Van den Tweels, get bread, cheese, olives, tapenade. We do a big breakfast, lunch is snacks/leftovers - fruit cheese meat bread crackers - and we cook in most nights. Alcohol is relatively inexpensive so we keep that chilled, take a adult beverage and watch the sun go down every night for entertainment.
