Salvadoran restaurants in Matagalpa

  1. Restaurante El Disparate del Potter

    On the road to Jinotega, this ridge-top restaurant marks the spot where driven road builder Charles Potter blasted his way through a wall of solid rock. Renowned for its onion quesillos and repochetas (a corn and cheese torta), the real reason you're here is the view. If it's a clear day, pay the fee to climb the spire of rock and check out the moutaintop view.
