Fonda
A casual, roadside eatery located on busy streets that serves traditional meals at very low prices, usually offering a daily special. (In Panama, these are often humble, open-air spots known for hearty, local food).
At Ms. Lily's fonda they sell some really good fried plantains: I do not like eating at those fondas because you never know if they washed their hands to cook.
