Dining Review
La Chola Peruvian Cuisine
by Eric Marion
As a vegetarian, I am very often challenged with Puerto Rican dining and in general with most Latin American Restaurants. Chefs will spend hours preparing animal meat to taste, but vegetables and fruits are too often deemed "secondary" elements to the main course. Thus, most of my restaurant experiences are tales of stale parsely, wilted lettuce, and second-class dining experiences. Read More
Fortaleza Antiques
By Eric Marion
“Antiquing” is a time-honored tradition among shoppers of a certain sort. Searching for that perfect curio (and finding a delightful tsotchke along the way) is one of life’s simple pleasures for many. In San Juan, there are a handful of hidden antique stores. None are as “hidden” or as well-stocked as Fortaleza Antiques. Tucked behind a non-descript reja (ornate grill-work) on Calle San Jose, passerbys will miss the store unless they are specifically seeking it out. Word-of-mouth has obviously worked well for Fortaleza Antiques; in business for 29 years, the shop has no signage or advertising. Read More
Tourist Zone Areas
EMERGENCY ASSISTANCE
There are numerous Walgreen's in the Tourist Zone. The Walgreens on Calle Loiza, just off Santa Cecilia, is open 24 hours. There is a Walgreen's in Isla Verde on the main strip near the highway entrace. Walgreen's locations can be found on the SAFETY tab at the far left of this page. There is a 24 hour Walgreen's on Calle Loiza, near the entrance to Ocean Park at Calle Santa Cecilia.
Hospitals
There are numerous hospitals and clinics in San Juan. However, most locals prefer the Presbyterian Hospital, located at the corner of Magdelena and Ashford. This is San Juan's premiere hospital with emergency care. Your health insurance will probably be accepted. (787) 721-2160
Information Booths
The Puerto Rico Tourism Company has a storefront information center in Old San Juan (also on the Sun Map). The Center is located on the bay near the cruise ships at the far western edge of Marina Street.
