If you are planning to be on the Mayan Riviera in the Fall of 2010, don't miss Taste of Playa 2010!! Taste of Playa is an annual culinary event in Playa del Carmen that celebrates the creativity and cultural influences of chefs throughout the Riviera Maya. The event promotes the unique culinary perspectives of local chefs, highlights new event venues and coordinates the efforts of local businesses and municipal governments.
This year's event is scheduled for November 21, 2010 in the Parque Fundadores from 3 pm to 9 pm. Admission to Taste of Playa is free to the public with "Taste of Playa Pesos" available for sale which are used to purchase the signature dishes offered. Samples will have a value of 1 or 2 Taste of Playa Pesos (10 to 20 pesos in value). All-inclusive VIP Passes and Taste of Playa Pesos may be purchased at the event, ordered in advance or purchased online beginning July 1, 2010.
Each year, Taste of Playa will donate proceeds from the event to a local non-profit food or clean water program. The beneficiary for Taste of Playa 2010 is the Rotary Club, Playa del Carmen district. This organization brings together business and professional leaders to provide humanitarian service, encourage high ethical standards in all vocations, and help build goodwill and peace in the cities and areas where we live. This year’s donation will go to a new food education program implemented by the Rotarians of Playa del Carmen, in an effort to educate local children and families about the importance of nutrition, nutritional balance and the use of local produce and resources to maintain a healthy diet.
If you visit Morelia in Mexico's Central Highlands, try these restaurants: San Miguelito, haute Michoacan cuisine in a relaxed, colorful environment; Los Mirasoles, a wine bar downtown; and La Fonda de Mercedes, Michoacan and continental cuisine served in an old house downtown. Other great places in the area include La Mesa, outside Patzcuaro.

As the weather turns cool here in the Western White Mountains of New Hampshire, I am remembering some special travels of the past few years...

Ay, chimichanga! If you are in Taos, New Mexico, try it at Guadalajara Grill, Orlandos or Antonio's. Different, but delicious, in each place. Bien Venidos a Taos, Nuevo Mexico!
