Just two blocks from the condo, this is an inexpensive and fast restaurant with good traditional Mexican food. I'm a fan of the enchiladas myself. The pozole (corn hominy) soup is pretty solid as well.

This tiny lowland ranch town about an hour from PV makes you feel like you stepped back in time. Good for a day trip piggybacked on top of the botanical gardens. Or keep going through Tuito to the isolated and majestic Mayto beach.
