P.r.

Finally made the Reggaeton pilgrimage of going to a concert at El Choli and it was ELECTRIC! (Arcangel brought out Bad Bunny?!!!?!) Didn’t party all that much unfortunately but La Factoria in Viejo San Juan was a solid spot.

After starting on that high note, PR really treated us well…except for the guy who sold us a coconut for $10…they grow on the island my man??? Anyways, the beaches are spectacular. We didn’t get to go out to Culebra, but did manage to hop in a car and drive out to the west part of the island, Cabo Rojo + Mayaguez, where it was super quiet and relaxing.

In terms of food, PR does fried food so so well - I came back obsessed with alcapurrias. Theres an awesome dining scene around San Juan. Santaella was a solid dining experience, but a little more on the upscale side. My absolute favorite place to eat was La Casita Blanca in Santurce. Such an amazing, authentic vibe and its packed with locals. They also have a sister restaurant whose name is slipping my mind but also amazing.

Side note…That last pic was somewhere in the southwest corner of the island and it’s pretty famous..I can’t remember the name, but if you happen to come across it and are thinking of going…I promise it’s not worth it LMAO. It was super tiny and pretty out of the way.
