Elvi's Kitchen or Elvis' Kitchen??


Interior of Elvi's Kitchen - Note the Sand Floor and Tree Inside

Okay. So we're from the Midwest and not too hip on the Caribe accents so it is understandable that we kept thinking we needed to go to Elvis' not Elvi's to try the food recommended by the locals. We were initally thinking we didn't want to go to a touristy place named Elvis' Kitchen. We finally broke down and made it for lunch one day and boy were we surprised to find the photo of an older lady (Elvi herself) on the cover of the menu and not the "King." We enjoyed the food and the restaurant decor. They built the building around a tree inside and the floor is still sand, which is kind of neat. I guess they do that so the next high tide from a hurricane can just flow right on through. If you get to San Pedro we'd recommend a visit.
