    1)Make some ice cubes with a little chicken broth. They love it!

     

    2) Freeze a washcloth that has been soaked in chicken broth. Give it to her to chew on but, only for 10-15 minutes. It soothe's their gums. Keep a  close on her so she does not try to swallow it.

    3) Cut up pieces of carrots.

     

    Sorry but I have bad experience's with giving dogs bones. One dog cracked a molar...$800! Another dog's teeth had problems later as he got older.

    We have just returned from another wonderful dining experience at Colibri Restaurant, our fifth dining experience at this great place. As usual Daniele & Carolina are the most gracias host and hostess and very welcoming with genuine warmth and personality.

    We have not been back in a few weeks and so what has changed?

    Service: is now much more as it should be, friendlier, self assured and confident although, still a tad bit to go on the friendlier side. And very attentive without being bothersome. The growing pains of this new jewel of a restaurant are starting to subside to the point of achieving a noticeable difference. 

    Menu:

     Is still the crown jewel of this place. Why? Because it is different and they are committed to offer local, fresh ingredients.

    Food:

    Still very good if not outstanding, worthy of a four star restaurant in Los Angeles or San Francisco for half the price! Everything has been executed well, and consistently.

    Ambiance:

    Great decor, warm and inviting, with a touch of class, and that hard to achieve effect: that you forget that you are not in a restaurant  instead  of  feeling like you are in someones home.

     

    Value:

    A bargain for what you get.

    Conclusion:

    So why worry about the  Jubilado discount? We really don't get that. Here is a wonderful couple with an awesome chef here in Boquete trying their absolute hardest and they get some flack about the  Jubilado discount. Give them a break... try them out a couple of times... put yourselves in their shoes.  

    Lets not get hung up on that!  We should welcome them here with open arms. They are a fresh breath to an otherwise average restaurant experience ( Not all, but a majority)  here in Boquete.

    Four of us had dinner there last Friday.  Totally agree that Carolina is a great owner and really on top of the service. The menu is like no other in Boquete. Great selection of appetizers, and entrees. The bread is the best we have had in Panama. Served fresh from the oven in little brown bags with whole baked garlic with oil and balsamic. Incredible.

    We started with  Zucchini Carpaccio, and Chicken Tapa's as appetizers, that were excellent,

     Three of us had the  Pork Shoulder, the consensus was it was excellent and tender, moist but could use a bit of salt. I had the Pad Tai with chicken which was very good with a perfect spice kick. Followed by Blackberry Mousse and Blonde... killer!

    Jubilado was not applied and we were told the same as Pat, and we must ask for it before being served. That was the only draw back for us but not a huge deal. They need to get the staff up to snuff on training. Had to ask for water, more bread etc. If Carolina was not there checking on our table, taking the order, and making sure we were serviced properly it could of been disappointing. Prices are comparable to the Panamonte.  The selections on the menu,great food, and free corkage make this good reasons to go back.
