Is there vegetarian food in Panama?
Yes, but the options are not extensive. In most places, this will mean subsisting on rice, beans, and vegetables like plantains or yuca. Larger cities will have more restaurants and better vegetarian options. Chinese food is also abundant and is an easy, reliable source of meat-free meals.
