","info":"Paraíso is close to the Mecoacán Lagoon and one of the main fishing ports of Tabasco, thus its gastronomy has dishes based on seafood. One of the most representative dishes are oysters on the half shell seasoned with lemon, salt, and hot sauce.
A typical dish from the region of Tabasco is pejelagarto, a fish that you can eat grilled or in green chili sauce, and can be served with rice and fresh salad of lettuce and tomato. You can also try chirmol de cangrejo, consisting of crab meat steamed and bathed in a sauce made of annatto, tortilla, pumpkin seed, chili, and onion. In order to try seafood with regional seasoning, we recommend visiting the Costa del Mar restaurant located on the road to El Bellote.
If you want to enjoy a typical drink in Paraíso, you can have a glass of white pozol, a beverage resulting from mixing processed corn with water. It is served cold and you can add sugar.
