When exploring resorts for breakfast, you can always find Breakfast Platters, Bounty Platters, Mickey Waffles… You know the drill. Whenever I spot something a bit more unique, I like to take the opportunity to give it a try. Contempo Café offers a Breakfast Burrito ($5.99) filled with scrambled eggs, chorizo, potatoes, cheddar cheese, black beans, and a cilantro charred tomato salsa.
Last Friday, we had some friends in town for F&W and wanted to kick off the weekend with dinner. I had tried to secure ADRs for Raglan Road earlier in the day, but they were booked solid between around 5:30-8:30. We were looking for a 7:30 ADR for 4 people, but options were limited. We were still going to try to get into Raglan Road, but I decided to book Bongos as a back-up plan.
When we arrived at RR, it was packed to the gills. There was a line out the door to even inquire about how long the wait would be and to put our name on the list. Fortunately we still had Bongos! We decided to start out with some appetizers for the table. A special “Thank you!” to Scott & Susana for being so patient with my photo taking, including having to use the obnoxious iPhone flash in the dark restaurant! They chose the Traditional Ham Croquettes (Croquetas de Jamón).

As I promised yesterday, here’s our review of La Hacienda de San Angel! Much like our trip to Via Napoli a while back, this was our first experience at La Hacienda. I’d eaten a couple times at La Cantina, and we’ve both been to San Angel Inn in the past. We booked a late dinner with the intent of viewing Illuminations from our table.
We started with the Queso Fundido, a combination of melted cheese with poblano peppers, chorizo, served with flour tortillas. I think it would be sufficient to say we could have ordered this as our entrées as well!
