Spent New Year’s in Saulita Mexico, one of my favorite places. Enjoyed buckets of fresh shrimp from the local market and even roasted a whole red snapper. The tomatoes broccoli cucumbers and green beans had flavor matched only by my mother’s Kentucky garden vegetables.
Sayulita had been our preferred vacation spot for 10 years with chickens running in the streets and horses wondering the beaches with the surfers and sunbathers. We enjoyed homemade tamales delivered to our door as well as ceviche and margaritas in the restaurants.
Anna, my 6 year old surprised us by making the hour long hike to the next town of San Pancho without complaint. We had Coconut ice cream and cerveza at the end of the journey.
Mexico is really exciting for many reasons but I prefer the constant availability of fresh RIPE fruit and veg. Guacamole never tastes so good as when you buy the avocados just right and mush them into onions , tomato, chili and lime.
I hate to reveal our favorite places but in the interest of good business I will tell you our favorite place to stay is Mar Amor and we love Don Pedro’s for dinner and Rollie’s for breakfast. There’s a wonderful new pizza guy on the North beach road that has been frying mini calzone while he waits for his pizza oven and it looks like Medusa is doing beach service from the access road by Las Gemelas.
Oh and the weather? 80’s and dry. Perrrrrrrfect!
