caimarones, lemon and the typical fruit; Araz) in the north the staple food is
(rubber, yucca,) some fruit how copoaz, papaya) is very famous because San
Vicente del Caguan and Puerto Rico are cattle regions.
The dishes of the region are: Sancocho de gallina, pescado moquiado,
esponjado de araz, torta de yucca, sopa de guineo, maduro con queso,
envuelto de maiz, caldo de cucha, and carne a la mamona in (San Vicente).
Is very common that you see in the north of the department some products
derivatives of the milk how (yogurt, cheese, buttermilk, and arroz con leche) in
my opinion is more tasty the yogurt.
My favorite food about the Caquet is Sancocho de gallina; and my favorite
place is San Jos del Fragua and San Vicente, because you can enjoy the
weekend with the family and friends, you can enjoy the river, the songs, the
food and you can drink some beers.
