We came here at 09:30am on a Sat morning. I'm usually a Starbucks guy but no one can argue against the fact that little coffee shops like these offer higher quality brews, cause that's just a fact. It's near the Brick steakhouse which I will be reviewing tonite on my third visit. In the morning it's a chill vibe cause the adjacent restaurants are mostly closed but later in the day you will enjoy a more lively atmosphere due to bustling people in the nearby restaurants and bars.

They are located on the corner of Calle Maestraza and Calle Jose Maria Morelos. I was not sure about El Arte as we were sitting in the window as were three other tables as well as the whole restaurant is visible and there is a lot of foot traffic. But you don't even notice everyone walking by because of the great job they do keeping you distracted with light music and great food from the chips and salsa to your main course. We ordered the Pollo ala Parilla which was fantastic. We also had a Michilada that was the best. Dinner was so good we decided to try out breakfast today. It did NOT disappoint. The service both days was top notch as well. We had dinner last night and Wow! The place checked all boxes.

My first morning there I started off with a Machiatto, a double espresso with frothed milk which is my usual order at the coffeehouses in New York. My wife kicked off the day with one of her favorites, a latte grande. The richness of the flavor without a hint of bitterness blew us away. We'd never tasted coffee like this in New York, or in Seattle for that matter. The owner of Crema di Espresso was the barista that morning, and I started up a conversation with him about Mexican coffee. I learned that it ranks among the finest coffees in the world, better than coffee from Columbia, Brazil, or even Jamaica that produces the renowned Jamaica Blue Mountain. The coffee served at Crema di Espresso is hand sourced by the owner, and roasted by him in a medium dark Italian style. Like a vintage wine, appreciation is in the eye of the beholder. If you live in Guadalajara or are visiting there, the coffee at Crema di Espresso will open your eyes to the pleasure of premium Mexican coffee superbly roasted without the bitterness that you'd expect to find in a coffee with such exceptional full-bodied flavor.

That being said, finding a quality cup of coffee in GDL to my taste is easier said than done. That was until I found Café Oro Maya. This place is located near Chapalita, one of the best places to find great food in GDL. Just across the street from the glorieta, you'll find easy parking right in-front. With comfortable seating inside and out, you'll find a selection of traditional Mexican coffees. Or, as I often do, I'll get a coffee "para llevar" (to-go) and stroll the glorieta, which often has artists selling beautiful paintings/sculptures. The owner/operator is very friendly and knowledgeable about the coffee he sells, which originates from the Chiapas region of Mexico. The coffee is grown in fair trade and environmentally sustainable conditions. The owner seemed to recognize that my Spanish isn't the best, and spoke to me about his coffees in English, but I still force myself to learn and speak in Spanish, because it sounds much better. While sipping a Mayan espresso, I find myself relaxing in this beautiful shop, playing a game of dominoes, and wishing I could take this coffee home with me to California. I'll settle for a pound of beans to take back with me on the plane, because I know I'll be back soon, and will always make it a point to visit Café Oro Maya.
