Mexican
Whet your appetite
I
f you like Mexican food you’ll
be in heaven. If you don’t like
Mexican food you might just
be converted. We indulged in
a set menu that took in many
of their favourites, although
looking at the menu again now
we feel the need to urgently
go back and try some of the
dishes we missed. Guacamole
and esquites (corn served in a
cup) were a gentle introduction,
while the ceviche Acapulco
was mouthwatering with its
accompanying corn chips.
The taco with tempura prawn,
pineapple salsa, avocado
Jl. Kayujati No. 9 X,
Petitenget Beach, Seminyak
and coriander ramped up the
excitement for our favourite –
the Mexican style pork ribs with
fresh tacos. We almost forgot
about the pork belly and grilled
fish tacos in our rush to tell you
that it was, inevitably, washed
down with some tequila-based
cocktails, but fear not if that is
not your thing. There’s beer and
wine and if you’re looking for
an alternative cocktail then the
vodka, triple sec, Malibu, lime
juice, pineapple juice, coconut
water poured into a coconut
shell (a Coca Cocolado) is
almost too easy to drink.

The Verdict

If this place doesn’t put a smile on
your face, nothing will. Whether
it’s the food, drinks or atmosphere
that make you happy is irrelevant
and when all three combine, it’s a
recipe for unbridled fun.
