Chicken Red Curry… it’s what’s for dinner!

My husband and I are HUGE Thai-food fans. Especially red curry. We love trying out all the different types of red curries at different restaurants too!

China Town, San Jose

A few weeks ago we went to downtown San Jose, Costa Rica, to check out China Town!

We stopped in some of the grocery stores there to see what we could find. We scored some Red Curry Paste, Rice Noodles, and Coconut Milk!

China Town was a really busy place and there was so much to explore! It was interesting to see Chinese speaking Spanish! They also had lots of different fruits and vegetables we had never seen before! It was really neat!

So with all these new ingredients, Chicken Red Curry was on the menu!
