Guests enjoyed our fresh and locally-sourced food so much that our family-style meals soon became a central part of the Nicuesa Lodge experience. More and more guests would ask us for our recipes to take home with them, and so was born the idea for our Edible Landscape Garden Cookbook,” write Nicuesa Lodge owners in the book introduction. “Our recipes became a clear reflection of Nicuesa’s overall philosophy: authentic, fresh, natural, fun and sustainable.”</p><p> </p><p><a href="{{#staticFileLink}}9008906494,original{{/staticFileLink}}"><img width="350" class="align-left" src="{{#staticFileLink}}9008906494,original{{/staticFileLink}}" alt="9008906494?profile=original" /></a>You can even enter a <a href="https://www.facebook.com/NicuesaLodge/app_600469859988196" target="_blank">photo contest</a> based on the new cookbook to <b>win a four-night vacation for two persons</b> at the <a href="http://www.nicuesalodge.com/about-playa-nicuesa/our-philosophy-of-sustainability/" target="_blank">Costa Rica eco-lodge</a>.</p><p> </p><p><b>The photo contest is easy</b>.
