Decent Mexican food but not the real deal: Restaurant Grill & Vine @ The Westin Guadalajara (7. April 2017)
Finally back in Mexico, I was looking forward to enjoying some real Mexican food – and well, probably, a SPG property is not the best place for that when I’m thinking about ‘authentic’ dishes but nevertheless, or rather, because the room wasn’t ready yet, I decided to have lunch here and went for the “Marlin […]
31. August 2012: Restaurant California
The Molletes Combinados (Jamon y Chorizo; 104 MXN) are a great way to start the day early after a heavy night. The mollete is heavy but the combination of Chorizo and Queso Manchego makes it very tasty. The dish is actually quite simple – a bun of bread, ham or chorizo and cheese. The place […]
30. August 2012: Restaurant Maneira Grill & Vino
Starting with a Margharita into a blissful last evening in Mexico City was ideal … … to deal with the pretty spicy dips which were served with absolutely delicious bread (I never thought I would actually ever say that about Mexican bread but the bread was truly outstanding). As a main, I had “Bife de […]
27. August 2012: Restaurant Wings
The “Arrachera tampiqueña” (con frijoles refritos, guacamole, rajas preparadas y doblada de mole; 167 MXN) is astonishingly tasty for airport food. The mole is rich, the guacamole too and the tortillas are perfect to make your own little tortillas. Even the meat is tasty and juicy. The waitress is very friendly and helpful and even […]
27. August 2012: Las Palomas Bar
The Las Palomas bar is located at the pedestrian street right next to the sea shore of Puerto Vallarta – the place is nicely cooled down and ideal to sit down and sip a beer (Corona, 40 MXN). The waiter is friendly, but not really motived. Inside the bar it is simply furnished but quite […]
27. August 2012: Mango’s Beach Club
Mango’s Beach Club is the perfect place to chill out right next to the beach while you are in the city. A relaxed atmosphere with comfortable furniture right next to the beach. If you want, you can even sit at the beach itself which also belongs to the beach club. Our waiter was very friendly […]
26. August 2012: Restaurant Sea Breeze
The “do it yourself hamburger” (Hamburguesa de carne Angus) is absolutely delicious. You can assemble your hamburger the way you want, with cheddar cheese, bacon, tomato, salad, avocado and onions. The angus beef is luscious – absolutely juicy and rich in taste (240 MXN). The atmosphere of the Restaurant Sea Breeze when you are sitting […]
25. August 2012: Restaurant Carolina
Sylvain Debois is the chef of the Restaurant Carolina – awarded with 5 diamonds of the American Auto Association (AAA). So, my expectations were accordingly high and I must admit, they were – too a high degree but not completely – fulfilled. Once you were seated, greetings from the kitchen were sent: Frozen asparagus with […]
