Gastronomic route

From June 2019, PR-152 is the Gastronomic route of Naranjito (Ruta Gastronómica de Naranjito), for having a large variety of restaurants and businesses along its route for chinchorreo—a term that loosely translates to "bar hopping". Chinchorreo is when people go from place to place along a route, stopping in for a bite to eat or a drink and these "gastronomic routes" have been established around the island of Puerto Rico to stimulate local tourism.[5][6]
