Playa Lonchero

Over a few weeks we visited several of our favourite restaurants and then found a few new ones.

Playa Lonchero is a beach club and it is a restaurant. Because it is on the Eastern side of the island we decided to be there at sunset. When we arrived (six-ish), the waiter explained that the kitchen was closed, so we could only order something cold. Deb ordered a shrimp salad and I ordered an octopus cocktail. Each was large enough to be a full meal and each was wonderful.

Of course a beach club has its own beach,

Beside the dock is a little enclosure with a few woebegone sharks.

The sunset was beautiful.


Deb is always getting in the way.

 Before we had finished eating, we discovered why they close early. The mosquitoes came out in masses. I discovered that I could kill two or three with one swat. We got some takeaway containers for out food and we made our escape.

We will have to go back a little earlier in the day so we can enjoy their signature tikin-xic fish (barbecued with Mexican spices)
