Numerous restaurants offer the crustaceans, and they are rooted in a long tradition: In the 1950s, only few families lived at those cliffs overlooking the Pacific. The men daily put to the sea with their pangas to catch lobster, and when they returned, their wives discerned them already far at the horizon. They then hurried home to prepare fresh tortillas and cook rice and beans for the hungry fishermen and added the freshly caught lobsters fried in hot lard – as the salary was low, rice, beans and lobster were the only food the people could afford. Go and taste for yourself in the Restaurant Villa Ortega’s what made this former poor people’s meal the famous delicacy of today. 7 Restaurant La Cocina de Doña Esthela Duration: 01:00 h · Price: $$ Discover Doña Esthela's authentic homemade cuisine in the Guadalupe Valley.
