History of Chimichurri
This most famous Argentine sauce was probably first mixed together by gauchos – cowboys – who used it to flavor the meat they prepared over open fires when on the pampas. Depending on who you believe, the name chimichurri comes from the word tximitxurri, meaning “a mixture of several things in no particular order”. Personally I refer to it as holy oil! And the best can be found at Florios!

The calendar has spoken mi amigos! In the United States it’s NATIONAL TEQUILA DAY! So I say we all ignore the border and celebrate the day! But first let’s learn a little before we a sip a little.
People have been making tequila for centuries… it was once known as mezcal wine. In fact, tequila is mezcal, but mezcal isn’t tequila. That’s because tequila is distilled from a specific type of agave plant. Tequila owes its name to the Aztec language. The word comes from an ancient Nahuatl word, “Tequillan,” which means “place of tribute,” or possibly “place of work.” And did you know tequila is the world’s most regulated liquor. It can only be produced in five regions in Mexico—Guanajuato, Michoacán, Nayarit, Tamaulipas, and Jalisco, though the largest producer is Jalisco. The agave harvest is a labor of love and time. The plants take between 8 and 12 years to harvest and can grow as much as 7 feet tall. But only the agave heart is used to make tequila. The hearts of the plant, also known as the piñas, are cut out, cooked, ground down, and fermented to make tequila. During the 1918 Spanish flu epidemic, patients were instructed to drink tequila with lime and salt to ease their symptoms. Today, tequila isn’t considered a cure, but might still help sooth sore throats, ease congestion and aid with sleep. Oh, and did you know tequila is also Gluten free!
Sip and Salud!

Everyone gnomes I love Bonito Kitchen! The vibe, the staff, the food, and definitely the cocktails! But last night I waddled by butt over there just to try their Monday special… Bao con brisket! All I can say is this place has some damn nice buns!! Ok, and yes they are $230 pesos, and some say that’s a little high, but there was so much brisket! Literally melt in your mouth, super tender and served with fresh pickles and a very unique asian bbq sauce. I waddled in, and definitely waddled out! Muchas gracias Bonito Kitchen! (Oh, and no I did not consume all those cocktails last night. I’m just sharing some of my favorites. Plus I look muy guapo next to a bonito coctel!

Give me coffee to change the things I can.☕️ And wine to accept those that I cannot. 🍷

Coffee is known for its
ability to provide a boost of energy and increase focus, which can be helpful for tasks that require mental alertness. On the other hand, wine is often associated with relaxation and can help reduce stress and anxiety in moderation. The choice is up to you and what you feel is best for your situation! Sometimes we need a little of both.

If it’s healthy, you can eat more right?!! Today I tried .pv in the marina area. They have locations throughout Mexico; PV location has been open for less than 2 years. It’s a bright, airy, restaurant offering breakfasts, smoothies, bowls, wraps, pastas, and some fun and healthy bakery items.
Started with a jugo verde (good presentation, but I prefer mine blended and a little thicker). I chose the teriyaki bowl with chicken ($210) Roasted chicken, roasted edamame, broccoli, avocado, and a homemade teriyaki dressing. Chicken was tender, teriyaki wasn’t too sweet, and the avocado was super fresh. Also tried the Chilaquiles ($185 with chicken) Baked tortilla chips, black beans, adobera cheese, avocado, shredded onion, radish, yogurt cream and cilantro aioli.

Pros: Clearly marked vegan and gluten-free options, food was tasty and well presented. Menu is extensive and everything is carefully indicated. Prices are fair, pretty typical for the area. They have vegan donuts.

Cons: Service was exceptionally slow. Over 10 minute wait for cappuccino, food arrived one dish at time so we were unable to eat together, and we had a hard time getting the servers attention when trying to pay the check. However, it was a Sunday late morning and the restaurant was fairly busy.

Address: Marina del Rey Condominium, Popa S N, Local 4, 48335 Puerto Vallarta, Jal.

Hours: open every day from 8:30 - 5:00.

Last night I did it! No, not that! 🙄 I found the perfect wine bar! And just to clarify, I am so NOT a wine snob. I will not deny that when I'm trying to select a bottle of wine, I’m strongly influenced by the picture on the label. I just know I want it to taste good and I want someone to help me find exactly what I didn’t know I wanted. La Bodega de Tony Store & Wine Bar is perfecto! A charming, unpretentious cafe on a relatively quiet street in Versalles. They have both indoor and outdoor seating, and an impressively large selection of wines. Hot and cold tapas are the crux of the menu with standouts like the Spanish Garlic Shrimp and Prosciutto Wrapped Asparagus. But after a glass of red wine, I will admit I was craving their New York steak! It’s the kind of place you can hang out with friends, or take a date and do the whole romantic thing. While La Bodega is still fairly new to the area (they opened in December), it definitely adds to trendy food vibe exploding in the Versalles.
And they also have Christi! She is an absolute gem! I learned so much about wine… and literally never fell asleep during my lesson! Her passion for wines is contagious. She was tremendously helpful and a joy to talk to. Basically a really good human.
As we were getting ready to leave, we also met the owner, Tony. Funny, knowledgeable, and extremely charismatic. Exactly what you would expect from a cool wine guy. Another really good human.

And for those that don’t think Mexico has good wine, change that thought! We ended up getting a great bottle of red and a bottle of white, along with 2 artesanal cervezas. Pro tip: If you’re new to this wine drinking thing, just swirl your glass a lot and put your pinkie finger out. You got this! The best way to learn about wine is by drinking wine. 🍷

La vida es demasiado corta para beber vino malo - life is too short to drink bad wine.

When one wants a cerveza, the other wants a cocktail, and you both want to sit outside. .mx and is the answer. Technically you can also order pizza from Pizzeria Giardino but we just went for the refreshments. Also met the owners of .mx - super nice, super accommodating, and definitely another great addition to the Versalles community. Cheers to local!

I don't know who needs to hear this right now. But if you're going through a rough time...don't cut your beard. Just don’t.

I have no idea why they gave me 2 forks. I think I can handle this on my own.

I think I need a pair of yellow sunglasses.

In case anyone asks you what pairs well with white wine… the correct answer is pancakes. On a random Wednesday morning I got to sit outside on the rooftop of a beautifully modified home, along a quiet cobblestone street, with the breeze blowing through my beard, enjoying a delicious breakfast, while sipping on a glass of crisp white wine. Viva Mexico!
Olive in Versalles, now open for breakfast. And muchas gracias to Andrew for service with a smile, and for putting up with my wining! 🍷🥞

The day I went pink! Pata de Elefante in Nuevo Vallarta. A nice breakfast restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating offering a fairly extensive and unique menu, including fruit bowls, chilaquiles, omelettes, pan Francés, pancakes, waffles, and Montecristo. I went for the PINK PINK ($150)- a smoothie bowl with a base of strawberry yogurt, pink masala, mixed berries and agave syrup, topped with organic granola. It was really good! The best I’ve ever had? No. The little chunks of ice were definitely distracting from the “smoothie” effect, but the berries were fresh and flavorful, and the presentation was perfect. I also ordered a pink masala latte($65) Definitely a place you should consider of you’re in the area and looking for some unique and healthy breakfast options. Side note: this is a valet only parking venue, so plan accordingly. And if you do go and you get the Oreo pancakes, please let me know how they are! They looked amazing!

Do you really think I get this incredible body naturally!?? That I live on tacos and cake and look this good?? I’ll share my secret - boxing! Try it! I highly recommend . Fun atmosphere, great coach, and lots of classes. It’s proven boxing increases strength and flexibility. Both essential if you want to carry 5 pizza boxes while eating a taco.💪🏼🍕🌮
Also offering Muay Thai!

I’m trying to eliminate negativity from my life. Therefore Mondays are now ‘Taco Tuesday Eve” until further notice.

You cannot make everyone happy, you are not a taco. One can only attempt to achieve such greatness.

So when a place advertises THE BEST FISH TACOS, you gnome I am up for the challenge! Just had lunch at Marisma Fish Tacos in Versalles. (This is their new location; they are also located in Romantic Zone). It’s an authentic, cozy little spot, owned and operated by women with a passion and love for making people smile with a mouthful of taco!!I tried the Pescado Capeado / Deep Fried Fish (1pz)50g - $47, Camaron Capeado / Deep Fried Shrimp (1pz)) 50g - $47, Ceviche tostada con Aguacate / Ceviche With Avocado (1pz) 50g- $24, and a fresh Pineapple smoothie. The seafood is fresh and the tortillas are made in front of you. Try them. You can thank me later. 📍 Hamburgo 156B, Versalles, 483Puerto Vallarta, Jal. (open daily 10:00- 6:00)

I finally made it to Homun. Not sure what took me so long, I am a huge fan of Cha (also in Versalles) so I knew it had to be good. I was celebrating a special occasion and wanted something unique but unpretentious. It was perfect! Literally everything I’m drawn to… an old Mexican restored casa.. authentic yet trendy with stone floors, open kitchen, and a small outdoor courtyard filled with plants and soft lighting. Even the sleeping cat in the corner added to the ambiance. Before we even looked at the menu, I was intriqued. Then we met Carlos (aka Charlie). I appreciate a knowledgeable server who tells you what’s special about the place and popular choices that you might enjoy. Carlos is phenomenal! I believe the service team should take the customer on a magical dining experience where choices are suggested and information is presented with flair. That’s Homun. Everything…the cocktails, the appetizers, the entrees, the desserts were thoroughly explained, including the cooking process. We went with the grilled Caesar, Soft shell crab taco ($145), the grilled octopus ($395), and Asian BBQ pork ribs ($395). If you have not found this little gem of culinary delight, I would highly recommend you check it out! And If I could only use one word (which is obviously hard for me) it would be EXCEPTIONAL! Este Delicioso! Address: Viena 198, Versalles, 48310 Puerto Vallarta Hours: 6:00pm -11:30pm (closed Sunday & Monday)

And I ask myself for the 12th time this week, “is this a real problem or do I just need to eat something with melted cheese?”

People seem to think gnomes only eat tacos. I am here to dispel that rumor. Gnomes crave crispy chicken sandwiches with homemade coleslaw and creamy, spicy, mac & cheese! So if you have an inner gnome, check out Algo Bueno, the innovative little eatery in Versalles that makes one of the BEST CHICKEN SANDWICHES IN PV! Definitely coming back to try the butter chicken curry tacos! Pro Tip: order extra pickles; they’re homemade! Open 9:00am - 9:00pm Tuesday - Sunday. (Closed Mondays) Location: Calle Roma 126 int A, Col Versalles Puerto Vallarta (between Milan and Lisbon -one block from clinic 42)
