Visiting Tia Catrina.

This weekend I had the pleasure of visiting a new restaurant with lots of flair and felt the need to share the experience. The occasion was a birthday which attracted all the gang from far and wide (there was even a couple up from Australia!) and as usual, it was good to hear all the tall tales and catch up on the local news.
Well, Tia Catrina's is a "gem in the rough" and definitely worth a visit. From the moment we entered, we could tell we were in for something special beginning with the bright decor utilizing the best colors of Mexico and lots of great artwork. There are comfy seats strewn with soft pillows and cute touches like hand embroidered coasters on the tables. The menu offers tasty selections at good prices and we were able to sample a few things including the Beet soup and the Chile Relleno, both of which were beautifully presented and delicious. The prices are resonable and the staff friendly so what's not to like? Tia Catrina's is located on the corner of Pino Suarez, just over the bridge heading south about a block from the beach and the Olas Altas area. They are open each evening at 5:00 and will soon be open for breakfast as well.
