Adding to our list of good places to eat

In our last post, we blogged about all the good places we'd eaten so far in Playa del Carmen.  Well, we now have another spot to add to our list:  Chiltepín Marisquillos.

We stopped in at this open-air spot a short walk from our rental (and well outside of the tourist zone) for lunch recently and discovered some delicious and fresh seafood specialties, nicely presented.  
Picture
We each ordered two of their seafood tostadas; they have several different flavors and varieties.  I tried a Caribbean-inspired fish tostada (on left below) and a shrimp ceviche tostada.  Both were delicious!
Picture
Barry also ordered the Caribbean tostada but for his second, went with one flavored with serrano chiles, on left below.
Picture
We really enjoyed the fresh flavors, and two tostadas was plenty of food for lunch.
Picture
Chiltepín is not dirt cheap, but we thought it was very reasonable for the portion size and the quality of the food.  With a beer apiece and two tostadas each, our bill, including tip, came in at approximately $20 USD.  

We're looking forward to visiting this nice little neighborhood spot again!

Yum!

All of your tostadas look delicious! Looks like you two are thoroughly enjoying eating your way through Playa del Carmen. :-) Love the pic of the coatis at the top of your blog. I remember when getting a glimpse of them was not easy, but now it seems they are a very common sight in most areas.

    Emily & Barry

    We're a long-married, early-retired couple who are currently traveling as nomads with no fixed home base.  After years of living in North Carolina (Emily's home state), we spent 18 months living oceanfront on Ambergris Caye, Belize, a year road-tripping the US in a Honda CR-V, a year in Playa del Carmen, Mexico, and are now roaming North America in our 32' motorhome, Pearl, following warm weather whenever possible.

    Our passions are bicycling, walking and hiking, birding, continuing our midlife struggles to learn Spanish, enjoying healthy food (and the occasional donuts & pie!), traveling (duh!)  We travel with a fleet of bicycles and Paisley, our 10-year old Boston Terrier.
