Lonely Planet Guide 2009

Just in case you haven't picked up the 2009 LONELY PLANET travel guide..... here is the review for GINGERBREAD. READ ON!!

If you're a gourmand suffering from a lack of memorable cuisine, make absolutely sure to book dinner reservations at the new "our pick" GINGERBREAD HOTEL & RESTAURANT!
Arguably the best restaurant in northwestern Costa Rica (if not the entire country). Better yet, stay at the charming boutique hotel, where the beds are sumptuous and the rooms adorned with murals by renowned local artists - this way,you'll get homemade preserves and pastries at breakfast. With the freshest local fare providing the foundation of his weekly menus, chef EYAL turns out transcendent meals(mains US$11 to US$20, wines US$30 to US$200)and is choosy about his wine list, emphasizing top Chilean and Spanish vino. And yet there is no pretension in this very cozy,out-of-the-way, lake-view dining room with walls covered in paintings by artists in the community. A word to the wise: do not pass up dessert.
