[dancer 2]

We will be staying in the Old San Juan Hotel on Friday, forgot to ask were to eat and how to pay (American $$?)

Boarding Crown for the b2b on Saturday, any ideas as to when to head for the ship??

We're taking a cab to the Intercontinental Hotel where we can dine at Ruth's Chris Steakhouse. They have the best steaks anywhere but they are a little pricey, about $100 or so per couple. We eaten there several times and never regret this little splurge. Pay with USD everywhere in SJ.

If you want local food there is a restaurant (I think it is called Sams) right across from the Ponce DeLeon statue in Old San Juan. It had been written up in my book and was highly recommended. I ordered a pork dish that was in a maize shell. The food was great and the portions were huge. I had read about it but we happened upon it on our way back from the fort.

Try the Parrot Club in Old San Juan. Stopped in for a drink in the afternoon a few years ago, and really enjoyed it. The menu included local dishes as well as a great seafood selection. The prices seemed moderate for San Juan. Later that year I read a very positve article in Gourmet Magazine about San Juan dining and The Parrot Club. We plan to dine there in February.

If you are looking for seafood then by all means go to the Marisqueria Miro in the Condado district. They have the finest seafood that I have eaten anywhere, bar none.
