puerto rico's ruta de longaniza

During our visit to Puerto Rico in 2015, we visited the Ruta de Lechon (Roast Pig Route). This year, we decided to check out the Ruta de Longaniza (Sausage Route). 

Unlike the Ruta de Lechon, the Ruta de Longaniza comprised of two different main highways. And, at least two towns host sausage-centric restaurants along the road. 

fine dining recommendation in san juan, puerto rico

If there was one restaurant I would recommend in San Juan for fine dining, it would be Bodegas Compostela. The food there is fantastic and the proprietor is super friendly. 

During our last visit to San Juan, Mr. Sazy Rock and I wanted to try the fine dining scene. Local chefs recommended that we check out Bodegas Compostela. I am glad they did.

The cuisine is Spain Spanish, which we adore. The owner, Rey, and his and chef partner are from Galicia near Santiago de Compostela. That is why they called their restaurant, Bodegas Compostela. It has been around for 33 years.
