It is helpful to always have cash with you, especially for smaller transactions and purchases. - Eating gluten-free: Most establishments are very good with this although there is sometimes confusion about corn being gluten. I would recommend writing out a card in Spanish of your allergies if you have them so you can give it to the restaurants if need be.
