Fairy lights are strung around this popular club, where local students take to the alfresco stage to the cumbia beats or the interesting salsa-Macarena fusion. The kitchen serves carefully prepared versions of traditional Nica dishes like vigorón (steamed yucca and pork rinds), nacatamales (banana-leaf-wrapped bundles of cornmeal, meat, vegetables and herbs) and repocheta (cheese-stuffed tortillas).
