Los Mercados- Part 2- Prices and Such

We went to the opening of Los Mercados Tuesday morning and in typical Vallarta fashion, they were not open due to programming errors of the cash registers. Since I already lived through that dilemma when opening stores here in Mexico, I felt their pain and completely understood that even under the best of circumstances, Murphy's Law applies doubly in Puerto Vallarta.

Once they got the computers and software to cooperate, we found ourselves in Mikey's (the deli shop) famished and ready for a true deli styled sandwich. I put my tummy in chef Elliott Gallagher's hands and told him to surprise me. Surprise me he did with an amazing BBQ'd pulled turkey sandwich on a crusty yet soft roll, slathered in a tangy and refreshing slaw with a vibrant smokey, sweet and spicy BBQ sauce covering juicy roasted turkey breast. Just what the doctor ordered!

My friend (who I split the sandwich with) declared it “the best sandwich she ever had” and I agreed wholeheartedly. It was fabulous and well worth the wait! Best yet, the size was perfect for sharing.

Unfortunately we were so focused on devouring Elliot's creation, I forgot to take a photo of it.

I did take some photos (with prices) of the menu board and some of the delicacies available.

After picking up the sandwich I headed over to Don Fresco to snap some pictures of the produce and prices.

Thanks to Peter, Beatrice, Michael, Elliot, Dani, Nina and the rest of the team for creating a fabulous place to explore. You were wll worth the wait!
