Patacones and Mongodo

I (Bubba) am the cook in the family now. This weekend I rustled up some patacones—take not-yet-ripe plantains, cut 'em up into one inch pieces, fry them in a little oil, then smash them into patties, then fry them again until golden brown, good with a slice of tico cheese on top, or a little cinnamon sugar.

Then today in lenguage class we are eating Mongodo, tasty little treat of COW STOMACH...costariccense delicacy.
