Mexican Wines?

Fri, 10 Feb 2012 20:33:01 GMT

Does the ferry from Pichilingue to Mazatlan carry any cargo?



9+ days in Mexico City: Where should we EAT?!

Thu, 09 Feb 2012 23:57:59 GMT

I recommend Paxia in San Angel which happened to win the peoples choice award at the Travel and Leisure Gourmet Awards 2011. I had a great lunch there after visiting the Saturday market. Although the service wasn't as polished as I'd expect, the food was outstanding and prices were reasonable given the quality and attention to detail.



A week in Monterrey- looking for recommendations

Thu, 09 Feb 2012 19:22:20 GMT

Heh I was more thinking of the "oh for the love of all that's holy, don't eat THERE, they use Velveeta in their queso con chorizo" sort of warning, but I can see how my post could have been misinterpreted :)



Azul Condesa or Azul y Oro?

Thu, 09 Feb 2012 15:17:56 GMT

Gueraaven: If you haven't sampled Chef Munoz-Zurita's Pan d'Elote, be sure to order it for dessert on your next visit. It's unlike any other you've ever tried. and I can't get that taste memory out of my head.



Cuernavaca and Taxco

Wed, 08 Feb 2012 23:09:05 GMT

My the surprises that are hidden in these boards! Cristina, how about taking Chavela Vargas, I don't know, warm socks and chocolates? a murmur of gratitude? from another loooong time admirer?



Puebla: Mercado de Sabores Poblanos

Wed, 08 Feb 2012 19:24:33 GMT

I have not found any chowhound posts mentioning this newer market of food stalls. I found an article about it here: http://www.puebla-mexico.com/mercado-de-sabores/ Has anyone been? Does anyone have any comments about the quality of food compared to fondas and street food around town in more traditional setting? Looks to be set up for tourist, not locals, but I am fine with that if it is good! Looks like a fun place to go grazing. Any specific stalls to look for? Thanks, Nathan



Merida - your thoughts?

Wed, 08 Feb 2012 09:06:58 GMT

Love Merida! We got married near there a couple of years ago. I don't think I made it to most of the places on your list. I can't remember if we tried Los Almendros or not, but I guess it was not memorable if we did. Here's what we did try: Pancho's...just went for drinks. Didn't try the food. The place is probably a bit touristy but it's a nice atmosphere. La Recova...if you're in the mood for Argentinean or steaks, this is a nice break. We had our rehearsal dinner here. Casa de Piedra (Hacienda Xcanatun) - we had the restaurant to ourselves. Lovely, lovely meal. Portico del Peregrino - nice courtyard, good meal. My personal not-to-be-missed places are these however: The chilaquiles at Hotel Casa San Angel's restaurant...I loved them when I stayed there and many of our guests who stayed at the hotel randomly mentioned them to me. The restaurant also has a very good patisserie. The owner (at the time I went) did much of the baking. This is a great place to stay, too, (as is Luz en Yucatan). Make the drive (and stay the night if you can) in Hacienda San Jose Cholul. It can be pricey but there are pretty good deals sometimes. We got married here. It's magical and the food is so good. My favorites are the sopa de frijol, the cochinita pibil, the panuchos, and they make awesome margaritas and micheladas. I was not impressed with their desserts, however. For a cup of Mexican hot chocolate and great chocolate gifts, stop by Tienda Ki'Xocolatl (Calle 55 Número 513, between 60 y 62) in Centro Merida. Also, my friend took a cooking class at Los Dos and loved it! I hope to do it sometime.



Where to eat in Tlateloco?

Todos Santos, Baja Sur

Mon, 06 Feb 2012 20:21:37 GMT

Anyone thinking about visiting Todos Santos from Los Cabos should know that a 40 km stretch of Mexico 19 is under construction between km 72 and km 112. There are intermittent stretches of semi-rough dirt detours. We made it fine in a Hyundai Attitude. We also got to see some exciting dump truck races on the way back to Cabo. 8^) Those guys are maniacs!



Zihua/Ixtapa recs?

Going next weekend-haven't been there in several years. Staying in Zihua-any new or fun casual restaurants you could recommend? Thanks!



Restaurants in Grand Mayan/Grand Luxxe Nuevo Vallarta.

Sun, 05 Feb 2012 16:33:03 GMT

Am currently staying in Grand Luxxe in Nuevo Vallarta, Mexico. I am happy to report that some of the restaurants on the property are serving delicious food, some more than others. First night ate at Samba outside near the Grand Mayan: expensive and not at all good. However, dinner at the Seafood Market Punta Arena was quite fresh and flavorful: wonderful shrimp, lobster etc for about $50 pp including tip. The Del Lago buffet is better than ever (for 255 Mexican pesos pp) with wonderful complex Mexican dishes, fresh green juice, freshly made in front of you empanadas including Huitlacoche and more conventional stuffings, etc. Can't recall all the options but the food is high quality, plentiful, and interesting. Restaurants outside the grounds so far: Eddies: best chile relleno stuffed with shrimp, not so great snapper with mango sauce. Tacos el muelle: good Mexican combination plate with chicken mole, empanadas and tacos for two for 150 Mex pesos.



Maximo Bistrot Local - México, DF - Restaurant Report

Thu, 02 Feb 2012 23:27:56 GMT

Happy camper! Fresh, local, and a few blocks away, Maximo Bistrot is going to compete with MeroToro for my new go-to meal out. I'm so excited to see a restaurant using local, organic food with a clean, flavorful, creative, and well-edited menu! I was about to cry if I saw another adorable new restaurant with the same old tuna tartare, lasagne, and sad cut of beef with some sauce on it. Ick. Maximo has made my day. The restaurant is warm, cozy, and oozing with flavor. My dining partner had red grouper with fresh peas and a flor de calabaza puree. I had lechón with potato gnocchi, cauliflower and cauliflower puree. All total there were four entrees and about six appetizers on the menu - some other dishes were chocolata clams and red snapper. We finished with a version of a raspberry millefeuille and a strawberry rhubarb crumble. First time I've seen ruibarbo on the menu anywhere, and as a fan I was thrilled. Entrees were between $180-$200 and wine by the glass was between $60-110. I had a decent red organic wine from France. Reservations recommended from the crowd I saw mid-week Tonalá 133 Roma Norte (corner of Zacatecas)



nouveau mexican for vegetarians?

Thu, 02 Feb 2012 23:13:35 GMT

As for DF... Azul Condesa has some enchiladas de jamaica that I liked more than I expected to. Also, you could order quite a few of their small plates and make a good meal out of it. Dulce Patria (don't miss!) has some plantain enchiladas with requesón. They all have stuff like salads, soups and little antojitos wtih cheese, too, that would work. Naos is also a good choice although not likely in the neighborhood you want to hang out. I would imagine all the good places have just one veggie option as a main course but can put something great together for you if you let them know in advance. I know Dulce Patria does since we did this for a friend. Since reservations needed, why not tell them when you make one? A lot of them are on OpenTable where you can add comments - in English would be fine - and if you need help with anything feel free to let me know. Happy to make a res for you. MeroToro has some lovely risottos they could probably make without meat for you with advance notice - with red wine and one with chard and a poached egg (!). I personally haven't had great experiences over multiple visits to Pujol and Izote, but I can't throw stones since I haven't been back in a while. Izote seems to have been remodeled and there are some reports on here about the new version. In Oaxaca, Los Danzantes should be able to pull something together for you. However, the casual food is my favorite there - great market and street food.



Review w/ photos: Izote de Patricia Quintana

Thu, 02 Feb 2012 04:46:42 GMT

just wondering if there is much here by way of vegetarian options? would love to try it.



Todos Santos and La Paz Trip Report (long)

Tue, 31 Jan 2012 17:02:54 GMT

Hola Mamacita! You were with Rick Bayless in Veracruz in September...WOW..did you do a trip report? I really like Crossing South...the host is a pudgy, sweet guy. They were at a restaurant in Ensenada and the chef/owner was making some great stuff. When we fly to Cabo and see the islands off La Paz, I've always said that I want to go there and when they showed the isla and they have campgrounds...thinking I'm so there! Nothing like freshly caught yellowtail and that mango, avocado salsa was a thing of beauty. That Mexican papaya was a so gorgeous with all those limes...best limes in the world. Just figured out what I'm making for Super Bowl...that will kick some serious a$$. Amazing that Rick has changed his tune in 10 years but watching these shows on Baja, I realize how fantastic the food is and we are so lucky to be so close and makes me miss so much how wonderful the Mexican people and their food is! Viva Mexico!



Finding produce in DF

Tue, 31 Jan 2012 05:46:29 GMT

Thank you for telling me this :) I have enough spaghetti squash in my freezer for the year, I think, but I couldn't freeze puree made out of calabaza de Castilla. I'll go see the Asian veggie stalls to try and fix that! Also, when I go I will look for your veggie vendor. If zapallo doesn't work (only one veggie vendor in the market had heard the name when I went), try asking about the pumpkins that were sold around the city during Halloween/DOTD for pumpkin carving. That's how I got mine.



Baking supplies in Mexico City

Mon, 30 Jan 2012 08:04:34 GMT

A few of these are new for me - will try them out! Thanks. Anyone know if any of these carry different kinds of flour? Specifically I'm most wanting a place for unbleached flour, cake flour, 00 pasta flour, and (now i'm getting greedy) any of the other fun flours a la Bob's Red Mill selection. I can always bring it back from the US, but it tends to be heavy and dusty.



Truly Great Paella in Mexico City?

Mon, 30 Jan 2012 07:59:54 GMT

This is so unhelpful that I am commenting on something I don't really know, but my Spanish friend raves about the authenticity of El Raco on Sonora facing Parque Mexico in Condesa. IF they have paella, it's probably good. I've eaten there a few times, like the food, but don't remember if they have. If D.O. does paella it's also probably pretty darn good. My guess is that if they did it it would be a special. Their mystery dessert, however, is awesome.



Best French Fries in Mexico City?

Mon, 30 Jan 2012 07:39:36 GMT

I don't know about killer, but if you are craving frites-style fries you may want to splurge at Brasserie Lipp in Polanco. Expensive but good.



Breakfast in La Condesa

Mon, 30 Jan 2012 07:33:53 GMT

I've got two potential ideas for you.. Tacos Hola on Amsterdam just north of Michoacán (Nuevo León side) is cheap but you will have to vie for spots at the plastic table out front or take your tacos to go. The variety is just great for breakfast, but it's not a sit-down place. Also, it's tacos de guisado so you get your choice of a wide variety of bean, veggie, or meat dishes. It's not meat-cilantro-onion in a tortilla. (sorry, just wanted to explain in case you weren't familiar with these kinds of tacos and didn't want costilla for breakfast) Another possibility is Flor de Lis on Huichapan 21 between Amsterdam and Plaza Popocatepetl. I really think the prices are lower than Pendulo - really substantial breakfasts. A great deal is their tamal combo plate. They are known for their tamales and you an also take out a bunch for a home breakfast. Maque, Cafe Ocho will be the same prices, Pain Quotidien and Milo's more expensive.



Where to celebrate Chinese New Year of the Dragon in DF?

Mon, 30 Jan 2012 07:23:32 GMT

Honestly, there aren't a lot. There's another thread about this you can search for with a couple recommendations. Nicholas Gilman also has a review of one fairly recently on his blog - within the past year - which I've tried and liked very much. Its mostly northern Chinese food, downtown just south of the Alameda. Not particularly festive though, but great if you are just in the mood for Chinese.



Cebicheria Erizo

Sun, 29 Jan 2012 18:04:56 GMT

2 friends and I headed to Tijuana yesterday for coffee and lunch. All I have to say is, if you're in Tijuana you need to make it a point to head to Cebicheria Erizo for some truly outstanding fish and seafood. And if you live in the northern Baja region, Erizo also doubles as a fresh fish market with a nice selection of local fish. We thought we were starving when we sat down and luckily there was a bucket of tostados (hard fried corn tortillas) on the table that took the edge off while we read through the extensive menu. We figured we were in a cevicheria so why not start with a couple of those. The Camaron y Calamar con Mango Seco caught my eye and one of my friend wanted to try the daily special Mixto Ceviche. Both were real winners. The former was a delightful blend of cooked shrimp and calamari tossed with cucumbers, a little onion, some cilantro with a pleasant citrusy juice and topped with julienned dried mango. A little sweet, a little sour, a little heat and perfectly cooked seafood. The Ceviche Mixto was equally as delicious. This spicy, tomato based ceviche contained plump pieces of shrimp, calamari, octopus, perhaps a clam or two and was topped with a fat, sweet oyster. It had just the right amount of heat to compliment the seafood without overwhelming the palate. The flavors in both ceviches were very well balanced. We then ordered a couple of tacos and a tostada. The Taco Gobernador was not like what you get in San Diego, and we all loved the char on the tortilla of this taco. The classic fish taco really was classic (with better presentation) and exceptionally good. I am often disappointed in fish tacos in San Diego, this one reminded me why they were so good in the first place. We also ordered a tostada topped with a chipotle crab salad which was wonderful. We finished the meal with a trio of tamales - coconut, blackberry and mango - and ice cream. Coconut and blackberry is one of my favorite flavor combinations so I was a pretty happy camper with those 2 tamales. They had been steamed in banana leaves rather than corn husks which gave them a little denser texture, but it worked just fine, especially against the rich and creamy ice cream. Portions on the ceviche are more than adequate for sharing which is exactly what we observed many of the tables around us doing. The menu includes an extensive selection of hot and cold appetizers, tacos, tostadas and some larger plates. 4 limonadas, 2 ceviches, 2 tacos, the tostada, dessert tamales and ice cream set us back $525 pesos (about $40 +/- depending upon the exchange rate) before tip. If you live in San Diego or Southern California, you need to try this place, it's that good. Cebicheria Erizo Ave. Sonora 3808 - 11 Recta Chapultepec



Best restaurants in Puerto Vallarta in 2012?

Sun, 29 Jan 2012 13:24:00 GMT

I don't know a Las Margaritas with a view. I think you mean Las Carmelitas. Haven't heard anything about it for a while and phone number shown in local guides is not in service but taxi drivers should know if it's open.



La Bamba, an Authentic 50's Style Diner in Rosarito, Baja

Sun, 29 Jan 2012 01:26:14 GMT

Yes, La Bamba is no more. They had good food, but had problems with with the licensing authorities. They told us that they had an investor that would set them up in San Diego.

Azul y Oro, Azul Condesa and now...

Thu, 26 Jan 2012 00:45:56 GMT

Azul Histórico opened today (January 24, 2012) at Isabel la Católica #30, Centro Histórico, Mexico City. We're giving it a little while to settle in before we go for dinner. Management is the same as Azul/Condesa, but the entire kitchen and wait staffs are new. Very exciting development for Chef Ricardo Muñoz Zurita and his team.



Isla Mujeres Private Chef Found!

Sergio, formerly of Playa Sol, and his wife have opened up a new restaurant on the ground floor of their house in La Gloria named Limon. They have a facebook page - the menu is large and diverse - looks delicious from the posted photos - and is getting rave reviews.



El Mejor Pan de Tecate

Wed, 25 Jan 2012 02:43:46 GMT

Yeah, the smell in that shop is to die for. It is a good thing my hubby was preoccupied with the Telcel billing problem; otherwise, he would have gone with me and bought out the inventory. GJ ;)



Cabo San lucas and San Jose del cabo Restaurant recommendation...

Tue, 24 Jan 2012 18:39:15 GMT

just got back from a week in sjd. first time here and we rented a car. easy place to navigate. tried to find the marisco place near the airport because we were hungry when we landed but there was no way to find it. there are lot of places that sell marisco so we gave up. on the ride into sjd heading south i saw a place as you just get into sjd, on the northbound side, that is called the best fish tacos in los cabos. it was in spanish with the english underneath. it was abot 3pm and there were a number of people there so i did a uturn and we ate there. excellent little place. fish tacos were 17 pesos. they also had scallops, squid, smoked marlin, etc. we also had a 1/2 order of aguachile. they have a huge selection to pile on in the middle of the restaurant. the usual guacamole, pico de gallo, salsas , cabbage but also fried onion rings, jalapenos, salad. really cheap, fast and good. we then hit the mega, i love that place. that night we drove into sjd and it was dark and i had no idea where i was. we ended up just short of the zocalo so we ate at habanero's. it was all tourists and i was not happy but wtf. i had a chicken stuffed with hualtacoche, it was good but i didn't expect it to be deepfried. most everyone else was eating ribs and usual fare. not bad but not worth seeking out. the next night we at at barrio del tango. argentine meat place. very local. loved it. they had a menu translated into english. the sangria with nuts was terrific. the queso melted on the grill with mushrooms was great. and the vacia argentino was an amazingly tasty and tender piece of meat. i brought back half of it for tacos for lunch the next day. went to csl the next day and lasted an hour. horrible. we ate at tacos gardenia and again, all tourists. it was good but not like the first place. we had a beer at baja brewing co and i'm glad we didn't eat there. good brews but only pizza and burgers. we took a day trip to todos santos and it's nice litle arty town. lots of expats. beware, the rroads are being fixed and it took over 2 hours to get there. horrible ride. nothing to rave about there but on the way home, we went north towards la paz and cut across the mountains. longer trip but at least we moved and the mountain ride was beautiful. we stopped in el triufe(?) the first town when you cut across on a recomendation from some expat in todos santos. an american baker opened a little place there, it is atown of about 200 and he sells pizza! and it was really good. it also cost about 220 peso which is about $18us. in the middle of nowhere. we had an arugala and prociutto pizza. amazing world we live in. if you go, it's the ONLY restaurant in town. the next evening was deckmans. excellent. upscale casual with very tasty food. more expensive than fish tacos but we had more than enough food, mostly delicious with cocktails and wine and the total for 3 was about $130. highly recommended and don't miss the octopus with pork belly. great service and drew deckman came out to meet us after dinner. interesting guy and i wish him luck. he told us it was just their 1 year anniversary and coincidently, so did the people ay barrio del tango. the next afternoon we wanted tacos so we tried to find the hangman. i even drew a map [...]



Ritz Carlton Cancun

Tue, 24 Jan 2012 17:57:42 GMT

At first the Ritz seems rather strange as it is more European than Mexican but it makes rather a change, it's not like any other Cancun hotel. The food really is marvelous there and I think their stretch of beach is the prettiest.



Memorable meal in Playa del Carmen recs?

Good Eats in Cozumel

Tue, 24 Jan 2012 03:34:32 GMT

El Turix is no more. After walking all the way there from the central square area, Rafael told us that they are converting the building to condos. He recommended a place just a couple of blocks away, on Ave. 30 on the east side and a couple blocks down: Tortuga. Nice enough - we had a few of red snapper variations, of which the one with almonds was the best.



Good eating in Rosarito Beach

Mon, 23 Jan 2012 23:52:51 GMT

Thanks for the report. VIP's always seems busy when we are in the area. That's Amore is a very good chef-owned and operated Italian restaurant that has been in business for about ten years. Le Cousteau is also very good and has been around for a long time,. It is a favorite of the locals. Good ingredients, solid cooking I am glad you had a good time and memorable meals during your vacation in Rosarito.



Looking for Update on Nuevo/Puerto Vallarta Dining Scene

Sat, 21 Jan 2012 12:58:28 GMT

You should take another look at this board, the most recent reports are January this year. Bruce who owns Teatro Limon has a personality as big as he is. Haven't been there personally but I have heard nothing but excellent reviews that are positive on value for the money.



Tulum trip report

Fri, 20 Jan 2012 18:22:50 GMT

We ate at El Tabano for lunch yesterday, partly on your recommendation, and it was the best meal of our trip. The icy cold mint-cucumber-avocado soup was a revelation but everything was amazing. We chose a couple of things and let the server pick another couple and it all combined into a memorable meal. The restaurant is in a lovely setting and we've decided we will be foregoing Playa del Carmen next time and staying in Tulum which is so much cooler. Thanks for poasting your trip report!

Nuevo Vallarta/Puerto Vallarta restaurants?

Sat, 14 Jan 2012 17:29:19 GMT

ok. just got back. We stayed at the Grand Luxxe and all the restaurants in the facility were just ok, more for convenience and service but the food was not worth going back. The best meal and overall experience I had was at Teatro Limon - it will set you back $100pp but is worth every penny. It's a "restaurant" in a house, with 5 tables. The chef asks you about your allergies and dislikes - then makes a 5 course meal right in front of you, inviting you up to watch how he prepares the food. We liked Laguno Tino's food and prices; Pipi's in downtown Puerto Vallarta for fajitas, atmosphere, and the huge marguaritas; and the view and price of El Muelle (tacos for 75 cents, in the marina at Nuevo Vallarta). Did not have a good experience at Nicksan. Food was expensive, not that good (in fact we had to send something back because it was inedible) and our waiter was either very new or very shy or both.



Looking for excellent romantic dinner in Cancun hotel zone, please help.

Looking for market/street food recs in Playa Del Carmen

Sun, 08 Jan 2012 17:35:22 GMT

Good recs! Also check out the tianguis on Saturdays at Parque la Ceiba for an interesting local market experience. If you are in town early weekdays, head to the empanada cart manned by Don Luis on ave. 20 near the bus station. Great authentic tacos with all the scary bits can be found at Tacos Gomez on calle 2 between aves. 15 and 20. There are open 4 pm until very late. Great after bar/club stop!



Vanilla Beans in Cabo or Puerto Vallarta

Visiting Todos Santos for a day on our way to La Paz

Fri, 06 Jan 2012 03:39:20 GMT

Many good restaurants here in TS. High end is Cafe Santa Fe - pricey but undeniably the best. Locals favorites for lunch would be Miguel's or Zaguan - both mainly seafood. Ask anyone -small town.
