San Salvador is an interesting city in a number of ways.
Although I was born there, I've spent the vast majority of my life in Los Angeles, a city whose population and geographical size easily dwarfs San Salvador many times over. Sometimes these differences subconsciously cause me to be at least mildly surprised by some of the things I see around San Salvador, especially when I also compare it to other similarly sized cities I've visited during my life.
One of these things relates to the dining options available in San Salvador.
Living in Los Angeles, one gets spoiled by the diversity of options one has available. After all, Los Angeles, is home to the largest population of expatriates from a variety of nations, including El Salvador, Japan, South Korea, Armenia and others. This translates into one being able to sample aspects from a lot of different cultures, including their foods.
San Salvador also offers a wide assortment of quality eats, perhaps even more diverse than some smaller cities in the States or Canada. I theorize the reason for this relates to the diplomats that are in town, and local businesses needing to cater to their needs. Lets take a moment to highlight some culinary styles you should expect to see, and continue on to share some important tidbits relating to the dining experience in San Salvador.
As you make your way around town, don't be surprised to see these culinary choices:
Japanese
Italian
Middle Eastern
Peruvian
Argentine
Taiwanese
Chinese
Mexican
American
Spanish
And various others...
