The wife of one of Querétaro's historic characters, the Marqués de la Villa del Villar del Águila,…read moreonce called this architectonic beauty home, quickly becoming an icon since its inception in the 17th century, and now known for being one of the most beautiful hotels in the city, but also for its elegant dining room that has come to be known as the Comedor de la Marquesa. Once known for its churros and hot chocolate that were sold in the evening, which sadly are no more, the restaurant still maintains its air of elegance and prestige bestowed by the characters who have dined here through the centuries. Entering the dining room is like stepping into history; the elegant furniture, paintings, and even the walls speak of another time, when the baroque was at its height in colonial Querétaro. The food matches the decor in elegance and sophistication. Both breakfast and dinner are served every day, and like the place itself, the food draws from tradition to present something inherently Mexican in a contemporary light. Breakfast offers the never absent Pan Dulce, fresh fruit juice, hot coffee, and an array of delicious omelettes, egg dishes, and other regional favorites such as chilaquiles and enchiladas for a full and satisfying meal. Dinner offers an even more elegant meal, showcasing ingredients and techniques from Mexico in a seasonal menu. A gem from centuries past, the Comedor is open to hotel guests and non-guests alike. Eating here will certainly make you feel like nobility.

You need to turn into what appears to be a driveway. The entrance is toward the back on the left, where you'll be greeted by a valet. I'm not sure if it's open parking at certain times, but valet was the only option on Sunday morning. The food, service and ambiance were all 5 stars. Lots of art on the walls, all apparently for sale. The fresh pastries were tough to choose from, I opted for the cinnamon roll with dried cranberries. It had the perfect consistency: just the right amount of gooey center to contrast with the outer edges, which were more baked and a little tougher. The dried cranberries were a bit of an overload, which made it sweeter than it needed to be or should have been, but those were easy to pick out. The frittata was delicious, but way too much cheese. I left a good hunk off to the side to spare myself from serious fatigue upon exiting, assuming I would have been able to stand up on my own accord. The refill coffee was the only thing that was really, really bad. But, they offer Americano from the machine for an extra $5 MXN. Just go with that and skip the unlimited refills on the drip pot option.

On our final day of our short visit to Queretaro, we wanted a light and breakfast. We opened Yelp…read moreand found Cafe Breton, a cafe with French inspired cuisine. We started with mimosas which our waitress, Laura, told us we're 2 for the price of 1. YES, please! Laura came back with the pastry tray (pictured) and I chose the napoleon-style dessert. Then I ordered the "Petite Dejeuner" ("small breakfast"). My wife ordered the mushroom and spinach omelette. My petite breakfast was large - boiled egg (I requested hard boiled), jam, delicious crusty bread, emmentel cheese, Swiss cheese, a juice made fresh from carrots, rosemary, and other other goodies, ham, yogurt, muesli, honey, salad, house made salad dressing, fresh fruit, and more! The omelette was huge and had great flavor. It also came with some of the fresh juice and fresh fruit. SIDE NOTE: I watched as other plates were delivered to tables, and everything looked beautiful. We sat upstairs in the covered area, but there is also a downstairs area with seating if prefer to avoid the steps. Laura, was an outstanding waitress. She gave a good review of the menu, and made wonderful suggestions. She was very patient and helpful as I practiced my ordering in Spanish. I nearly forgot!! We took a slice of pear and almond tart to go. We plan to enjoy it during our bus ride to San Miguel de Allende. If you've not visited Cafe Breton, go get a table NOW! Thank me later with a juice or a cup of coffee!

We started with complimentary fresh salsas and a savory cheesy bite. Very nice! One of the salsas had a real spicy kick, which I enjoyed. Also split and shared: - Sopa de Lima, a regional chicken and lime soup. Loved this! It was a light, brothy dish, and felt very nourishing. Delicious. Also tried adding some of the fresh salsas (as suggested). - Enchiladas Mole Negro. I'm glad I tried this one! Made me feel like I've never actually had authentic mole in my life. This was really rich, with complex flavor. Was sweet as well, and savory. - Tacos Cochinita Pibil. Yummy! Loved this with the salsas as well. Which, by the way, were refilled! A friend got the grasshopper appetizer as well which turned out to be a pretty sizeable plate full. So we all got to try that as well! Not bad not bad. Not quite what I was expecting, but I was happy to try it! (I thought they'd be salty and crunchy; actually they were softer and tasted a bit tea like. Leisurely and relaxed dining. Nice drinks too. So many agua Fresca options! I got a guava lime one.
