Panama - Cevicheria Tip Top

Despite the name, when I visited Cevicheria Tip Top last Sunday, there was no sign of any ceviche. The grilled chicken however, which was the reason for my visit, was abundant and perfect.

Tip Top is one of those places that everyone has heard of, indeed it's somewhat of a Panama landmark and every taxi driver knows where it is. This said, no one that I know really goes there. It is, nevertheless, always busy, which is always a good sign.

After four years in Panama, I finally made it, and the chicken was fabulous. I am a big fan of rotisserie or grilled chicken and this is definitely some of the best I have found in Panama.
At only $5.25 for a whole chicken, and lower prices for 1/2 or 1/4, it really doesn't make sense to make it yourself, when a raw chicken costs around $4 in the store here.

Tip Top is located on Via Brasil in El Carmen, just opposite Exedra Books.
