As the Burrito Burns

Step into the surrealishious and amazing world of Mexico as told through the eyes and mind of a teacher who has spent the past 20 years living in the coastal city of Puerto Vallarta. A wide range of experiences stretching from the serious to the sublime: living, working, marrying, birthing, teaching, eating, drinking, frolicking and fraternizing and so much more. There is so much to see and do, to tell and be told the list never gets old here at "As the Burrito Burns."

El Barracuda Bites the Teachers!


I don't think yesterday's TG could have been more enjoyable! We had the coastal breezes, great views, fun people and delicious food. Oh, and need I mention cold beer? This little restaurant overlooking the water has the right ingredients for a fantastic afternoon/evening and the friendly service and fresh shrimp burritos/tacos made it so worthwhile. It's billed as "casual fresh" and that's exactly what it is. It's the ideal place to chill with friends, eat, drink and be merry--very merry! We all had such a good time yesterday I know we'll be back.


If you're interested in checking it out, it's next to the Buenaventura hotel at 1290 Paraguay. There was lots of parking and you can't really have a bad seat. Their specialty is seafood tacos and some of the offerings include garlic shrimp, baja shrimp, smoked marlin and roasted pork loin in a pibil sauce. Speaking of sauces, one of the best features is the selection of savory sauces they serve with each order. There was everything from a mild chipotle sauce to a fiery Habanera which we loved! Wash it all down with a frosty Negro Modelo and you are in business!! It's open from 1:30 to 10:00 pm every day except Monday. I think you won't be disappointed.

    Hi! As you know we went back last night for sunset. The sun was dropping exactly in front of us so it was extra nice. We tried the "sarten" of garlic shrimp which is served with garlic bread and the dipping sauces and Fernando loved it!
