JOHN'S LIST OF AJIJIC AREA RESTAURANTS - UPDATED Jan 2013

Can't Post | Private Reply

This has been UPDATED. This is good for newbies or those vacationing here. I am not a food critic and many of you may disagree. This may help newbies or those coming for a few weeks. Our Bi Monthly Dinner groups favorites are asterisked. I don't expect everyone here to agree as everyone's taste is different. Some restaurants are not listed because we (our Dinner Group) have not eaten at them. All Restaurants are in Ajijic unless otherwise noted.
