We loved loved this market. We were in SMA for four days and went here three times. It's really…read moreone very long market and hard to get lost in. Someone else mentioned getting lost, but it's a straight shot with a larger food area at the top. So many different stall, craft, foods, and you can find something for you or as a souvenir for others. We watched a local artist paint a ceramic cow skull and loved it. It's now on our wall! We also watched another local artist paint birds onto bark scrolls, we got those too. Of course, there are all the typical jewelry, bags, embroidered clothing, and everything else you find in markets BUT the opportunity to get authentic food and purchase directly from the local artists... this was a highlight for us!

If a tourist center like San Miguel de Allende gathers its prototypical souvenir purveyors in one…read morespot, this would be the way to do it. The downside is that so many of the shops feel quite redundant that it's easy to bypass businesses when you know you'll see another shop selling basically the same things... magnets, masks, coasters, ashtrays, Virgin Mary plaques, you name it (Photo 8). There are two covered blocks of vendors after which we found ourselves in Mercado Ignacio Ramírez, a more open space featuring fresh produce, flower stalls, and fast local food stalls. It would've been more tempting to us if we didn't already have lunch at Jacques nearby (review: https://yelp.to/1eEKC6YG8X). Our walkthrough of the market was more of an Instagram op, which was just fine. RELATED - Exploring San Miguel de Allende?

We ordered tonight again. I think a different chef. Not as…read moregood as usual. I had the fried rice with chicken that my partner usually has and it was bland overall. I had to season it. I know they don't do cilantro but it needed that grassy flavor, it was off point. My partner tried it as it's is his favorite. He agreed as it wants not like the last times. Again we ordered the pad Thai with chicken as that is one of my favorites and I tried the dish as we each do one dish. We don't share, lol, but t was so bland as well. I order the fried spring rolls, they had great flavor but could have been fried a bit longer as they were not crispy throughout. We will keep ordering as we love Thai food and we love this restaurant. Bad night with the chef. I would give it a 3 star if it was my first time eating there but it's not. Their track record is good with our dozen doing with delivery and eating in.

After days of eating local cuisine, my dad and I were really craving Asian food, so we decided to…read moretry Orquidea, hoping for some authentic Thai flavors. While it wasn't exactly what we were looking for, it was good enough to satisfy the craving. We ordered the yellow curry and pad see ew. Yellow Curry - It had a nice slightly spicy, gingery flavor, which I enjoyed. There was a decent amount of chicken, though I definitely wish there had been more. The vegetables were a nice touch, but the eggplant was a little undercooked and could have been softer. Pad See Ew - This. didn't really taste like traditional pad see ew--it was more like Chinese-style fried rice noodles. The flavors were okay, but it was pretty oily, and it definitely needed some of the spicy seasoning to bring out more flavor. The portion of beef was also disappointing, with only about 10 small pieces of meat, which wasn't what I expected. Overall, it wasn't a bad experience, but it wasn't amazing either. If you're craving Asian food, it's satisfying enough, but if you're looking for authentic Thai flavors, you might be a bit disappointed.

Being served by people excited about their food and making their customers happy could hardly have been done better. From the injera to the various different types of food that were served, it was all delicious--just the right amount of spice and flavor. Beer and wine are available. Credit cards are accepted. While Ethiopians do not eat dessert, they have developed a couple of desserts which are a perfect complement to the food and are available for extra purchase if you want more to take home (yes, we did). Like any good dining should be---delicious and an experience to remember.

It was ultra hot here at end of May 2024. Too hot outside for lunch since no breeze was blowing and it was 98°! Sat inside in front of an oscillating fan! Made a hot lunch doable! Ordered the drunken noodles. The noodles weren't as wide as would like and wish they had cooked to be a little chewier. Otherwise , flavors are good. And they give hoisin, chili and soy sauce on side. I asked for limón to give a cristus acid bite flavor. Like the free fried wonton noodles with sweet sticky sauce onside. Delish. Also, order strawberry lemonade with basil. Good to see the drink is made to order with fresh ingredients and hand muddled! Overall, I'm still a FaN for good food here!

El Vergel is a small French bistro outside of San Miguel de Allende, GTO Mexico. It is an easy…read moreUber or cab ride (roughly $8-ish USD) from Centro on the highway to Dolores Hidalgo. As I had stated with my review of Bayonna in New Orleans, the menu is a rarity in that I would want to order everything on the menu. You will find French bistro classics such as Croque Monsieur, Steak Frites, and Onion soup. There is something for everyone, although I have to say that their liver pate is not to my taste, though it is delicious (it is too sweet and less savory than I prefer). The texture is wonderful. The Croque Monsieur is amazing. Whether under an umbrella or the pergola, El Vergel makes for a lovely, relaxed luncheon, and a nice break from the delicious Mexican food available all over SMA. Reservations are encouraged if you do not wish to take a chance on table availability.

As it turned out I was walking into a candy store, and all those pretty packages were sweets and treats. I was able to buy a few various samples and was happy to discover some good ones. On another passing I was tempted to stop by because I had really liked their cute little coconut candies, and I happened to have 10 pesos in my pocket. This time the owner who is very warm and inviting patiently and happily described each and every candy in his store. I loved hearing about how this one is made or where this one comes from, and what goes with each. I am not much of a candy person, but I have to admit he made me love the display and we sampled many that were really quite good to my surprise. I am planning a visit to the Yucatan soon and plan on having him prepare a big basket of locals candies (and their stories) to share with friends and family. It is a great gift idea that combines flavors, colors, traditions and makes people happy on any budget. Tried, tested and recommended.
