Be on time – don’t be early though: Restaurant I Latina (11. April 2017)

I had booked a table for 7pm but given traffic can never be fully anticipated, the Uber arrived a bit earlier than 7pm. And while I do understand that they only open at a certain time, there was a security guy standing in front of the door, looking at the watch, stating that it will […]

Touristic place in Tlaquepaque with female mariachis: Restaurant El Patio (11. April 2017)

You should definitely plan to pay a visit to Tlaquepaque when you are in Guadalajara as the area is super nice and full of history. There are also some rather traditional restaurants which obviously focus strongly on tourists – one of them, recommended to us by our tour guide for Guatchimontones, the El Patio also […]

Delicious Mexican dishes – newly interpreted: Restaurant Alcalde (10. April 2017)

Funny enough, I only recently learned in the app ‘Duolingo’ what Alcalde means – mayor! So, I had apparently booked a table at the ‘Restaurant Mayor’ which served ‘French cuisine’. Now, I was quite curious what was going to expect me and went for the “tiradito del dia con emulsión de aceituna, aguacate e hinojo […]

Great for huge groups – not so great for small groups: Restaurant Santo Coyote (9. April 2017)

Originally, there were somewhat different plans for Sunday, therefore, I had nothing pre-booked for dinner for that day. Well, turns out that this wasn’t the best of all plans. I asked for a recommendation at the hotel and got referred to ‘Santo Coyote’. I mean, probably, the name should already have rung a bell. But […]

Tequila tasting menu – a new experience: Restaurant La Tequila (7. April 2017)

Years ago in Cancún, I have been to a place which serves a lot of different tequilas, called ‘La Distilleria‘. Now, I had expected no less from ‘La Tequila’ obviously. To start we were offered various lemonades and I went for the “Lemonada de fresas” (strawberry lemonade) which was quite tasty but the glass only […]

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 […]
