A well organized knife drawer is essential for finding the right tool for the job.

A stone and a steel are close at hand. Shears, a peeler, and microplane grater round out the "cutting tools" assortment.

Streetside Shrimp Tacos

some of the best people watching happens on this corner, with super fresh fish or shrimp tacos and cold cervezas. There are two stands, side by side, serving almost identical menus.

 these ladies are on top of their game, serving up a variety of seafood specialties.

Pedrito's happy, healthy, and wholly original lunch menu

Lots of Amor goes into the menu, cooking, and service at this little streetside cafe. More than a taco stand, they prepare exquisite entrees and salads with a twist.

fresh chilled coco's are featured beverages.
Delani is from Oregon, but made us feel at home in Mexico. Her partner, Roberto, is maestro de la cocina.
