Fondas in Panamá are the undisputed favorte gathering place for most construction workers and taxi drivers. It’s their water hole to calm their hunger and thirst. You can buy a generous portion of white rice, fried green plantains, red beans, a cabbage and tomatoes salad, fried chicken and a Coke or chicha for approximately $2.00. Fondas are scattered all over the city, specially near construction sites. Good Day.
