In the Boquete at the vegetable market. Chiriqui Province is the "bread basket" of Panama so fresh vegetables and fruits are inexpensive and easy to get in town at the vegetable market.
Just an ordinary morning chirper here.
We found a great greenhouse with wonderful fresh herbs to plant here at the house and are able to buy 3 different kinds of hydroponically grown lettuce there. We are having our first real salads since we came here. A salad to most of Panama is iceberg lettuce with a piece of tomato.
If you are lucky there will be something resembling Italian dressing, usually they top it with mayonaise! Ketchup (salsa americana) is served with everything and real fresh salsa is nonexistant unless you make it at home. Spam is available in every (even the smallest) market!
We keep looking for something better that "we Americans" left behind.
