Just keep going straight on through town, following your nose as much as that is possible. You´ll pass a Pemex station on your left. Keep on going. When town is behind you, and you´re in a rural area again, you´ll see Los Arcos on your left. Huge, snazzy place that is plainly Michael Dicksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01720359542700663699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18132936.post-15285063660118412282010-03-23T15:55:33.502-06:002010-03-23T15:55:33.502-06:00You are all tempting me again.

It's next on our list of places to try.<br /><br />(But we do want to try that "El gorjeo de las aves..." place. The owner of La Mesa de Blanca said it was even better!!!)<br /><br />Can you provide directions to Los Arcos, either here or by private email?<br /><br />Gracias.<br /><br />Saludos,<br /> Don CuevasDon Cuevashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13512081335891808593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18132936.post-22012789285152002322010-03-23T10:19:59.632-06:002010-03-23T10:19:59.632-06:00My wife and I have eaten there just once, about tw...My wife and I have eaten there just once, about two years ago, I think. The location is pretty, nice view. We both found the food mundane, not too bad, not too good, pretty standard Mexican fare.<br /><br />On the opposite end of that same town is another beautiful restaurant. It sits on a hillside and has a great view too, though more rural than the view from La Mesa.

Funny that Patzcuaro, being a bigger town, doesn't have anything comparable. The interior is clean and inviting and it will be one of my must see places soon!<br />Maybe when guests come so I can try to out fumble them for the check...but not too hard.
