October morning at the Paseo del Pescador in Zihuatanejo where locals come for fish fresh from the catch.


La Fonda Irma, a loncheria, at the mercado–the place for a counter lunch of mole, chiles rellenos, hot corn tortillas and salsa picante.

I’ve been craving agua sandia (fresh watermelon juice) and finally found it here, along with horchata, cucumber “water” and lime “water”.


I wish I were there, but I am glad I am not one of those fish.
Did you have any “troubles” after drinking the agua? That’s one fear that keeps me from trying the local beverages…
Jeez, I want to be there baking in the sun and eating the fresh fish. Have you been to Mexico City yet? One of my favorite food cities in the world. You have to go to the food museum there and also the folk art museum too. The latter features all the indigenous art forms of each Mexican state. It’s pretty amazing and gave me a whole new appreciation of Mexico.
Gorgeous pictures. Luv the place!!!
