Panama has few original dishes, so the new wave of chefs is adapting regional products to global trends. On this trip, we discovered the excellentMadrigalin theCasco Viejo. Michelin-starred chef Andrés Madrigal is at the helm, and his Spanish-Mediterranean menu is made almost entirely with local ingredients and changes daily. His talent for combining unexpected textures, aromas and flavors makes for an epicurean adventure.
