Yucatan Food - Cancun, Mexico

The food would be one of the things that I would miss about Cancun. After eating Yucatan fares for a couple of days, I developed a craving that I order the same items on the menu.

When you are in Cancun's Zona Hotelera, its easy to be at home with familiar restaurants like Outbacks, Chili's, Domino Pizza, etc. Since we flew all the way here, we have to try the local cuisine, and we are not disappointed.

After reading travel guides for good eats in the area, all have the same recommendation, go the Parque Las Palapas in downtown Cancun and head over to Restaurante Labna. They offer a buffet on weekday lunch hours and we were able to sample everything for a mere cost of $8 per person. How can you top that?

The picture below has: Papazules, tortilla covered in pumpkin seed sauce. Panuchos, crunchy tortilla with shredded chicken (or turkey), lettuce, onion, avocado.


The meal is not the same without Sopa de Lima, chicken broth with lime and turkey.
By the time I am done with the meal, I didn't have room for desserts.

Now, I am hungry!

8$ for buffet - that's a good deal!

BTW, you seem to be traveling a lot too, do you do this for work?

No, travel is my lifelong (and expensive) hobby. Its just we went away more than the usual last year. We might stay local from here on...
