Yaxché

The menu here makes use of many native foods and spices, to present a more elaborate regional cooking than the usual offerings at Yucatecan restaurants -- and it was about time for someone to show a little creativity with such an interesting palette of tastes. Excellent examples are a cream of chaya (a native leafy vegetable) and an xcatic chili stuffed with cochinita pibil. I also like the classic Mexican-style fruit salad with lime juice and dried powdered chili. There are several seafood dishes; the ones I had were fresh and well prepared.
