==Cuisine== {{Main|Costa Rican cuisine}} Costa Rican cuisine, called {{lang|es|comida típica}} ("traditional food"), is generally not spicy. Throughout San José, the most popular food is the national dish of {{lang|es|gallo pinto}} ("painted chicken"), which is black beans served with white rice. ''Gallo pinto'' is usually served for breakfast with tortillas and {{lang|es|natilla}}, a thin sour cream. Costa Rican restaurants serving traditional food at an affordable price are called ''[[:wikt:soda#Spanish|sodas]]'' and usually offer substantial {{lang|es|casados}} for lunch and dinner. A ''casado'' (meaning "married" or "married man" in Spanish) consists of rice, beans, and meat, with cabbage-and-tomato salad, fried plantains, and tortillas.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.globalgourmet.com/destinations/costarica/costcuis.html |title=Costa Rica: Cuisine |publisher=Globalgourmet.com |access-date=8 July 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130728112031/http://www.globalgourmet.com/destinations/costarica/costcuis.html |archive-date=28 July 2013 |url-status=dead |df=dmy-all}}</ref> [[San José Central Market]], in downtown San José, has numerous food markets and sodas.
