Food was good in the evening. though on the second stay in lago Agrio we went to the Chinese in the main street and it was good ( and didn't give us any stomach issues) Lago Agrio is not the place they warn you about. Sure, it's got zero of interest but it didn't appear to be as threatening as we had read about. We walked around the market and did some pre-jungle stocking up in the supermarket in the main street - Tia. They sold...
