This is my favorite restaurant! It is 40 steps from the house and has a fresh daily updated menu. It is a very popular spot though with constant lines. Should the wait be long they will take orders to go, just skip the line and flag an employee for a take away order.

Sightseeing
A stroll down the Princess Promenade is a must! It is a completely different vibe and experience during the day and at night, if possible plan routes that get you there twice so you can experience it. Most weekends the entrance is lined up with local artisans selling their creations.

Of the two spanish castles, El Morro is the larger and more popular in general. The entrance alone, in front of a massive grass lawn, makes it worthy of a visit. Full of historical artifacts and great views of the bay and old city.

The official house of the governor of Puerto Rico, it was initially slated to be the first fortification for the city. Given its location too far into the bay that plan was quickly abandoned.
