Hi Mosto. I had thought at first it must be rice noodles, but mine were so tough that I couldn’t eat them. It must have been similar to what Dan had found above. Maybe you don’t eat those rice noodles.

I stand corrected on it being plastic, however it had the texture of plastic and I could not eat them. They were a lot different that the ones in the following post.

Hi Dan. No, my steak had the plastic like decoration as well. I give demerits for that as well. In the past all was eatable. You have a very good point. I would prefer no presentation rather than the plastic stuff.

Hi Don,

We stopped by the restaurant a couple of weeks ago on your recommendation and enjoyed it. We got a big smile from the Owners when we mentioned your name! Not to nitpick, but… my three courses (delicious mushroom soup, spicy chicken entree and cheesecake for dessert) all came with a large pile of “mystery twigs” on top. I’m all for presentation, but chewing on fiber strands of unknown orgin with the soup (and dessert) is a little much. Glad to see they found some “alternatives” in your photos.

Hi Joe and Nancy. I am happy that you enjoyed the restaurant. It is good to know that others and not just me are getting good food there.

Hi Tambopaxi. This it as sophisticated as it gets in David, but they keep the atmosphere casual with nice jazz playing in the background.

Wow. I haven’t been in David since 2001 (my family and I used to go Bambito and Boquete a lot), and it looks like the place is getting more sophisticated…

Don Ray,
Great write up of a great restaurant – they do have one of or the best steaks in town. And now a pat on the back (or the belly?) – When we last ate there a few weeks back the owner said that EVERYONE who had come in that day was because they read about his restaurant on your site! And while we were there a nice fellow made reservations for later on and said it was because of you as well! Way to go, Don Ray! Joe and Nancy of Dolega

No it was an error. Don’t know why spell check didn’t catch that one. Thanks for finding the error.

Is a “crape” the Panamanian version of the French crepe?
