What an excellent week this has been.... even though I missed most of it. Still, I managed to make it to four restaurants and hence, free entry into last night's closing celebration. It was an eating extravaganza if there ever was one, but no photos ... too many people and too much to eat.
However, getting there is half the fun or so they say. A few days ago I (we) had a wonderful breakfast at El Asador Vasco Plaza Parque up in colonia Reforma. Huevos Cesar, basically eggs with hashed browns with veggies. It tasted as good as it looks. Mmmmm...
There was juice and yogurt with fruit, but .... I ate it. There was a very nice mermelada de fresa.
Our final meal was at the Restaurante Catedral. I started with this wonderful soup, potaje de crustaceos, chile poblano y grilled calamares... Delicious!
Then a dish I would not normally have, but now that I have, I would definitely have again... and again. Glazed pork belly with mushrooms and sweet potato.
Wow! Too good... please sir, I'll have another. And finally, a tartin de choconoxtle (cactus fruit).
What a wonderful series of meals. I can't wait until the next Oaxaca Sabe, which should be in about six months. Be there or be square!
