Hola! I love Cabo Rojo with all my heart and at least I can calm my home sickness writing about the things I love about PR and my home town and sending people down there to enjoy it all. My Mami is a native of Cabo Rojo and they grew up exchanging what they grew on their farm for fresh seafood from the local fishermen. They ate lobster, fish eggs (we call it caviar, LOL!!!), octopus, all types of crustaceans and fish. When I lived there, she wanted us to enjoy the same delicacies and learn how to get the best and most fresh. She also taught us how to stay away from some things and places that can make you sick. Stay away from big fish, talk to the locals and especially the local fishermen. Forget about the language barrier, I'm sure they are more than willing to share their knowledge and advice. If it smells fishy, stay away. Stick with the kinds of fish I mentioned: mero ( grouper), chillo ( snapper), dorado (mahi mahi), in a size that doesn't seem too dinosaur big. Happy travels! J
