Wemby visited several Costa Rican restaurants and was kind enough to snap photos with the staff.

He visited one dining spot in the Pacific Mountains of Costa Rica sporting a new hairdo with twisted braids.

He then visited Mestizo Uvita, and the staff was ecstatic to have him visit their place.

"What a pride! Today we had the honor of receiving in Mestizo Tradition and fusion Wemby, outstanding NBA player. Thank you for choosing us!! It fills us with joy to know that our traditions and flavors are appreciated by sports stars," Mestizo Uvia posted.
