MexicoThis is where all the fish markets and lots of restaurants are. We like the Satisfied Frog, El Oktopus, and Mary's. You can buy really fresh fish and shrimp at many of the shops along the water.
MexicoThis restaurant/bar is at the very end of the Malacone, where you have to U-turn and double back on the higher road. I would totally come here over Wrecked any day--it's got a similar "get wasted" vibe, but seems much less like a frat hangout. We came for an early dinner on a Sunday evening, so it was like us and a dozen people over 60. Whatever, it's who we've become. Fun music, good margaritas,Read more
MexicoOne of many simple restaurants along the Malecon. Tim had been here before, so it was easy to choose before we got ambushed by all the other street hawkers representing other restaurants. We had fish and shrimp tacos, which were cheap and delicious. Didn't seem as windy here as it did back at the house, which was a bit of a blessing. Fun to watch the birds and fish right off the patio.
MexicoIf you don't see the billboards advertising this place along the highway from the border, you're driving with your eyes closed. I came here with Viv and Charles last year, and it was as I remembered, an amusing caricature of a Mexican bar for all the American frat boys and sorority girls staying in the nearby resorts. Margaritas are passable, food is pretty bad...just a pale imitation of what youRead more
MexicoHere's a tip: don't drive through this. Tim came very close to getting the car stuck, and also getting a divorce. Fortunately, with a combination of him pushing and me rocking the car back and forth, we got free. Did I tell him not to drive into this? Yes, yes I did. But once we were clear of it, it became a hilarious adventure...funny how that happens.
MexicoOur intention was to go to Pedro's (based on Yelp reviews), but it was closed today. We got accosted by Julio when we parked--he's employed by a local resort and trolling for gringos--but he was nice and we let him lead us to Federico's. We sat on the patio with a view of the water, ate seafood and drank margaritas. I had shrimp rellanos, Tim had fish and shrimp tacos. Everything was delicious andRead more
MexicoUnfortunately for you, this place isn't for rent. However, if you know Doug and Mary, you might be lucky enough to stay at this house right on the beach in Las Conchas. We've been here a few times, but never for a whole week. Weather has run the gamut from warm and flat sea to super windy and pounding waves. Today is windy, so we went into town for lunch and to poke around on the Malacon, did someRead more
United StatesWe rolled into town knowing we wanted a brewery with food, so we Yelped this one. Good beers and higher-end bar food, like hand pies which are apparently a thing here. I had some very tasty tomato soup too.
