Plaza Peninsula: Puerto Vallarta’s “Mall Mystery”

April 27, 2010

I really only wanted to write a post about this because trying to find the “Peninsula Mall” in Puerto Vallarta on a map was like trying to solve a Rubik’s cube blindfolded. So first comment: Don’t look this place up on Google Maps. It seems to tell you that there are 2 locations, or better [...]

Pancake House: Old Town Vallarta

April 27, 2010

I’m one of those people for whom breakfast is my favorite meal of the day. I’d have no qualms eating breakfast meals (like eggs benedict) for either breakfast, lunch, OR dinner. Thus it was to our delight to discover what is apparently “the oldest ONLY breakfast restaurant” in Puerto Vallarta… the Pancake House located on [...]

La Bufa, Jalisco: The Drive, The Mountain And More

April 17, 2010

I often tell Elysia how I think driving is one of my innate skills at life. I continue by bragging that I’ve driven in 6 different countries, both sides of the road, manual (stick) and automatic, off road and on. Nonetheless, the drive from San Sebastian Del Oeste, up the mountain to La Bufa (one [...]

The ONLY Indian Restaurant In Puerto Vallarta

April 12, 2010

I don’t mean like, the only one worth going to, I mean… the only one period. As you might have already seen, Elysia and I are freaks for Indian food. We’ve eaten Indian food from Manila to Montreal. We love it. Because of this, we were disappointed to learn that in the whole of Puerto [...]

The CN Tower Experience

March 3, 2010

For some reason, alot of the local Torontonian’s we met during our stay in Toronto didn’t have much respect for the old CN Tower. Though famous world wide, we constantly met locals seemingly ambivalent towards the poor tower. They either: 1. Had flat out never even been there. 2. Hadn’t been there in forever and [...]

Our Puerto Vallarta ATV Tour

March 1, 2010

It’s hard to write a post about ATV tours in Vallarta because as you’ll see if you’re looking to book one. There are a huge number of tours that go to quite a few different places and in combination with quite a few other activities. So rather than writing about any individual tour I’ll give [...]

March 1, 2010

If you’re looking for a fun day out that’s pretty quiet, a good combination of a scenic spot, a decent meal at a cool restaurant, and a leisurely stroll around a different kind of blue water in the Vallarta area, the La Cruz yacht club can certainly satisfy, even if you have no interest at [...]

Sweet Things Bakery/Cafe Bucerias

March 1, 2010

Unless you have either been to Bucerias before and gotten a recommendation, or been paying particular attention as you walk down Lazaro Cardenas Blvd, you’d probably never even know Sweet Things Bakery existed. And that would be a shame. The title of this post was going to be: Sweet Things Bakery/Cafe/Restaurant/Awesome. Walking down Lazaro Cardenas, [...]
