Lazy Day BBQ Fun at the Pelicanos!

You will quickly learn that living the Pura Vida lifestyle can most always involve a bite or two of something delicious shared with friends in a relaxing tropical atmosphere that will usually call for a nap in a hammock.

One of these tasty dining experiences took place on a lazy Saturday afternoon where we enjoyed some delicious American BBQ (rumor has it a Georgia recipe) at the PELICANO BEACH BAR and RESTAURANT Hotel in Esterillos.    There is a lot of amazing food in Costa Rica and you sure can't beat all the fresh seafood and local fruit but sometimes you just get that craving for some good ole' Southern style pulled pork BBQ with a nice tangy sauce!

The Pelicanos is a place that we frequent for breakfast, lunch or dinner due to its close proximity to our community, it's consistently good food, and amazing tropical casual atmosphere.  It is a great breakfast destination for a morning beach walk or lunch if you are a sun lover and don't mind the midday walk on the beach.  Or you can take a drive over.  Their "Morning Egg Rolls" are to die for!  

Be sure and check out the MENU for all of their great options for dining!

  

 On this particular day the Bejuco crowd was excited to join in for some Saturday fun and BBQ because The Pelicano originally had this BBQ on Sunday and everyone knows that Sunday in Bejuco we have a Sunday Funday Beach Potluck/Grill where everyone gathers for a neighborly day at the playa. 

The word was spread and the plans were made to head to the Pelcano for a meet up around 1:00.  Some of our energetic, athletic, exercise girls struck out on the beach for a nice walk and the rest of us piled into cars and hurried over to beat them there and grab some good seating!  

Friendly greetings welcomed us and we staked our claim to the large Rancho with a view of the water and surrounded by hammocks.  Perfect for a large group!  
The guys piled up in the hammocks and soon the beachcombers arrived, everyone got served  some nice cold beverages and we enjoyed the afternoon dining on some great food in the nice cool breezes from the ocean. 
...and some of those with a playful nature enjoyed the giant swings on the beach under the palm trees!

SWING ON BY and join in the fun!
It was a great way to spend a Saturday afternoon and we highly recommend it to locals, vacationers and those that are just passing thru on their Costa Rica journeys!  And the Good News is that due to popular demand the BBQ will continue as The Weekend BBQ and be served on both Saturday and Sunday!  Now that is some finger lickin' good news!

We have always enjoyed The Pelicanos but the new owners Debbie and Marcy have really spiced it up with great fun entertainment!  Don't forget it is also a hotel so if you want to spend the night after too much fun or stay as long as you would like .... they have "rooms at the inn" and their newest addition of the Pelicano Estates ~ private homes on the beach!
