[News Boquete] Your Next Comfort Meal Is Waiting… 🍲🥧


 

Happy New Year from the Boss Family!

A warm welcome to our newest neighbors — and to our local forever family.

🌿 Hello Boquete - and Welcome Home

Whether you've just arrived in Boquete or you've been part of this beautiful mountain community for years, we want to say hello and welcome.
 
Freeze & Feast is honored to serve a broad range of people - and an always evolving wave of new families coming to the area. Boquete continues to grow, and so does our community… and we're grateful you're here.
 
We are the Boss family, and we have been in Panama for a bit over a decade. We came here for a lot of the same reasons you all did.
And like many of you, once we arrived, we discovered something surprising…
 
🇺🇸➡️🇵🇦 The One Thing We Missed Most…
One of the first things we found is that the kind of high-quality, satisfying comfort food we were used to back in the US just isn't easy to find down here.
 
So we set out to bring that flavor of home to Boquete — with recipes that are clean, nourishing, and crafted the way we believe food should be made.
 
That's when we knew: Boquete deserved better frozen food — food that was clean, flavorful, nourishing, and made with love.

👩‍🍳 Meet Our Head Cook: Nicole

Our head cook Nicole was raised with an industrial cook and her mother raised their family feeding huge groups daily.
 
What Nicole learned didn't stop there - because the Boss family has been a proponent of Organic foods since the days of the very unhealthy genetically modified food.
 
We saw the rise in cancers, the mystery sicknesses, and the way that food was turned into a poison against us.
 
We have always been ahead of the game when it comes to trying to turn a bad food system into something that we can all grow and thrive from without the poisons.
 
That is why when we had the opportunity to try our hand at the Frozen Food Business we decided we could do it better in terms of health food and hopefully the taste.
 
But the jury will always be out as we are always striving to keep our recipes at the top of the food industry game.

✨ Featured Foods 

Here are the most recent items that have been winning hearts (and filling freezers!) all around Panama:

🥧 Featured Favorite: Chicken Pot Pie

Our Chicken Pot Pie is comfort food done right - hearty, rich, and satisfying.
Made with tender chicken and a creamy, savory filling, packed with vegetables and seasoned the way pot pie should be… like home.

🌯  Breakfast Burrito

Breakfast Burrito with Potatoes, Fresh Salsa, and from scratch Beef Sausage
This one has become an instant favorite — because it's real breakfast, made the way it should be.
 
✅ seasoned potatoes
✅ fresh salsa
✅ from scratch beef sausage
✅ packed and prepared for quick, satisfying mornings
 
Whether you're heading to work, spending the day outdoors, or just want a strong breakfast with clean ingredients — this burrito hits the spot.

🛍️ How to Order + Where to Find Us

With that, we welcome you to the brand new year and hope that you will stop by our offices at the San Francisco Plaza, order online, message us on whatsapp or give us a call.

The Boss Family

[News Boquete] Air Panama Flights: Reviving the David to San Jose Connection

REPRINTED FROM THE PANAMA PERSPECTIVE

Air Panama is exploring the revival of direct flights between David and San Jose. This move aims to strengthen regional connectivity and revitalize the tourism industry between Panama and Costa Rica.

An Air Panama flights aircraft preparing for takeoff at the Enrique Malek Airport in David.

The regional aviation landscape is preparing for a significant boost as Air Panama flights are poised to return to the skies between Chiriquí and Costa Rica. Recent reports indicate that the Panamanian airline service is in the final stages of evaluating the restart of the popular David to San Jose route. This strategic move responds to a growing demand for efficient cross-border transport that avoids the lengthy travel times associated with land crossings at Paso Canoas.

Enhancing Regional Connectivity and Travel Efficiency

The primary objective of restoring the Chiriquí to Costa Rica capital link is to improve regional connectivity. For years, business travelers and families have requested the return of the DAV to SJO route to simplify logistics. By offering a direct flight, the airline effectively bridges the gap between the two nations. Furthermore, this Central American travel initiative reduces a six-hour drive to a mere 40-minute flight, providing a seamless experience for those utilizing the Enrique Malek Airport.

Impact on the Tourism Industry and Local Economy

A reliable aviation connectivity plan is essential for a thriving tourism industry. When travelers have access to direct Air Panama routes, both David and San Jose benefit from increased visitor spending. Local hotels, tour operators, and restaurants within the travel sector anticipate a surge in bookings once the flights are operational. This influx of international visitors is expected to revitalize the hospitality market in the Chiriquí highlands and the Osa Peninsula.

Future Operations at Enrique Malek Airport

Currently, the David international terminal is undergoing logistical assessments to ensure it can handle the increased frequency of international departures. The Chiriquí airfield serves as a vital hub for the western province, and the return of these Air Panama flights marks a new chapter for the facility. Consequently, authorities are optimistic that this aviation connectivity will attract further investment into the region. As the airline finalizes its schedule, the travel sector remains hopeful for a permanent and sustainable flight frequency.

[News Boquete] Making the effort



November 12 Arky wrote to me asking if I knew of anyone that could help a cat his sister, Blair, just rescued.  As soon as I saw the photo I immediately responded that Kirsten Cares For Cats will help.  The cat was seen the following day by the veterinarian.  The cat, Cris, was bitten by a dog and the bites rendered him unable to use his legs. Committed to giving this cat an opportunity to survive, we are each doing our part.  Blair is caring for this cat with the utmost devotion and love.  Dr Garcia is providing his superb medical attention and tender care. Kirsten Cares For Cats is covering the medical bills and any other items needed.  And you have a hand in Cris' recovery with your donations, support and concern.  Cris is able to stand now and is starting to walk because we all made the effort doing what we can, not looking the other way as if he didn't matter.
Thank you all for your part in caring for the cats.
Happy New Year.
