Wikipedia:Valued picture candidates/Gallo Pinto

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Original - Costa Rican breakfast with Gallo Pinto
Reason
This image is used on both Costa Rica to illustrate what is considered the national dish of the country, gallo pinto. As a hallmark of Tico culture and Costa Rican cuisine, a good quality image of gallo pinto is a key educational facet to any discussion of the culture. This image has been used on the Costa Rica article in the culture section for more than a month, and is the best image of the dish available to Wikipedia. In addition to being fairly high quality, it's the most culturally-accurate photo of those uploaded, since it presents the most common preparation of the dish.
