Me miró fijamente a los ojos con esa mirada profunda y cautivadora Sin pestañear,con semblante serio.Me miró así como un soldadoy me dijo:VUELA CARMELAMe quedé fría.Fría tan congelada,como aquellas paletas en bolsita.Entonces, lo entendí.Rápido tomé mi maletay metí doblado un par de recuerdos.Un frasquito de aventuras de menos de 100mlporque más no se puede. Un sartén, un puñito de saly audífonos para escuchar las risas,para escuchar la música.Después de todo...EL CANTO ES PARTE DEL VIAJE.CARMELA

Impeccable service and beautiful food. Do yourself favor and order 2 Tostadas and don’t skip dessert! Also their St Germain Spritz is the perfect sweet and refreshing cocktail after a long hot day. So glad we snagged a reservation and saved this gem of a restaurant for our last day in CDMX! BTW, I overheard another patron talking about this being their 3rd time eating at the restaurant (they’re from Spain) and they also had a reservation for later next week!
