Melita about San Miguel,
Mexico...
I grew up in San Miguel and I go back
often. Torta Munda
at Calle Umaran 29 in San Miguel de Allende is a jewel
for visitors. It's a small place with seven tables run
by a warm and charming couple Maria and Luis Chavez. Pick
up a torta (sandwich with a variety of fillings made on
the grill in front of you) to eat there or to take with
you on your walk around town. Fresh drinks like tamarind
are made daily. There's little chance of you getting sick
from their food or drinks - lettuce and veggies are sanitized
and only bottled water is used. Here's a chance to enjoy
Mexican food without worries!

Tanya about Puerto
Vallarta, Mexico...
I live in Florida and recently visited Puerto Vallarta, Mexico
with a girlfriend. I have to say that Café
de Olla was one of our greatest finds. I really
enjoyed this place. Tucked away into a little cobblestone
side street, we almost missed it! The atmosphere is relaxed,
warm and friendly. You can order authentic 'huevos rancheros'
with a tangy tomato sauce poured over sunny eggs, served on
warm tortillas with a side of sweet fried plantains and fresh
'queso blanco'. The orange juice was fresh squeezed and they
serve both regular brewed coffee and espresso. Regrettably,
we didn't have time to come back to try their lunches. Too
bad, because the grilled seafood platter looked delectable.
The prices at Café de Olla were made for travelers
on a budget, but it never, ever felt touristy. Address: Basilio
Badillo #168-A Emiliano Zapata, Romantic Zone 48380 Puerto
Vallarta, Jalisco |
