A Spanish Tapas Place called Calderon


 Calderon, in San Juan is a small but quaint tapas bar situated in an off beaten path ion Calderon Street at the corner of Abad Santos.  It is one of the many small restaurants operated by Angela Melo (daughter-in-law of the former justice), interestingly enough, I enjoyed the authentic tapas. They also import, re-package and sell chorizos which you can find in most of their meals. Above is their famous Sopa de Gallo consisting of Fava beans, beef stew and vegetables. Below is the tripe menudo and Gambas. Along
with basket of garlic bread and a jug of Sangria, these alone will fill your pallate!
