Hiya!

Glad that your camera didn't crap out on ya this time ... I remember feeling so bad for you last year when you posted that you'd lost everything.

I really enjoyed your Flying Fish review - the pictures were great and I am hoping like mad that those flights are still available the next time we dine there.

And you look terrific ... never would have guessed that you were over 50.

enjoying your reviews so far and looking forward to the rest. I'd just be tempted to move into the concierge lounge and never move again.

Flying Fish. Oh we really, really loved this. Service was outstanding. Thank You Martha. The food was wonderful and we could have eaten here every night. So GOOD!!!!!!! They did not rush us at all. It was all very clean and smelled wonderful. Fun watching them cook. The Tuna was fabulous. DH and I shared everything and I think it was all so well prepared. We will go back.

Total: $207.66 Not on dining plan. Tip: $40.00

Worth every cent. Go. Wine served was all very appropriate for the courses.

Hey we had Martha when we went in October! Isnt she fantastic? And I too had to thank TigerKat for the suggestion of FF..her raves about the place were dead on!

I really enjoyed your Flying Fish review, it's a great restaurant and both the tuna tartare and the scallops with risotto were both fabulous on our last visit.

Thank you also for the concierge pics, I'm still torn between Yacht Club or BWI Concierge for our next stay so the pics were very useful.

San Angel Inn.
Do you notice all the plates on the table in the pics? Well as soon as we got our drinks here comes the apps. and then the main course. Huh? We didn't even get a chance to eat some chips and salsa. DH was REALLY pissed and told the waiter Hector that this was very bad manners. I blew it off and just enjoyed the surroundings.

I thought the food was OK. I really wanted a taste of real Mexican. We have some great Mex here in N.O. with all the roadside, fresh, Mex. And lovely Central American restaurants here to. I was disappointed.
DH didn't think it was worth it and he was disappointed too. He said it was the worst food experience on our trip. "Feed em and get you out Quick"

Cost: $109.70 Tip: $30.00

Next up the surprise of the trip. Walking into (no ADR) "Yak and Yeti". Was it fabulous!!!!!!!

 

[TigerKat]

We used to love San Angel and after having terrible service in '04 we vowed never to go back, the food was mediocre at best on that trip also. I do love the atmosphere and after seeing the new menu was thinking we may return.....probably not, TOO many other awesome places to go to!

Looking forward to Yak & Yeti, we were supposed to try it last trip but were so stuffed from breakfast at BOMA we couldn't think about eating lunch.

Merry Christmas to you & your DH! It's just the three of us home watching movies tonight.
